3.1 INTRODUCTION
The SERVO-i Ventilator System is equipped
with an AC power supply with automatic range
selection. The ventilator will automatically
operate correctly using 100-120V AC or
220 - 240V AC outlets.
See chapter Technical data on page 221.
The ventilator is equipped with at least two
battery modules which automatically supply
12V DC power in case of an AC power failure,
ensuring that ventilator settings and stored
data remain intact in the event of an AC power
failure.
Note: Batteries can be added to available
slots during operation.
The ventilator also comes equipped with an
inlet for an external 12V DC power supply. This
power supply activates automatically in case
of an AC power failure, and ventilator settings
and stored data remain intact.
3.2 VIEWING BATTERY STATUS
When operating from batteries, the estimated
remaining battery time in minutes is displayed
in the upper right corner of the screen on the
Status touch pad.
WARNING! If the remaining battery time on
the Status touchpad is displayed in red, the
battery modules have very little operational
time left and battery modules must be
replaced. If possible, connect the ventilator
to AC power.
Note: The total usable backup time is the
sum of the estimated operation time
displayed for each battery module minus
10 minutes.
CAUTION: When using external 12V DC,
at least two installed battery modules are
required to ensure proper operation.
When the system is connected to an external
power supply, all connected battery modules
are being recharged. This does not affect
ventilation.
Alarms and Messages
See Alarms and Safety later in this chapter.
When the ventilator is turned off with the on/off
switch, batteries continue to charge.

3.3.1 WARNINGS
WARNINGS!
If a battery status message is displayed
on the user interface, check the battery
status as soon as possible. If no action
is taken, the ventilator may eventually
shut down.
To guarantee reliable battery backup,
two fully charged battery modules must
be installed at all times.
Always replace batteries when the
ventilator software notifies you of
imminent expiration or of diminished
operating capacity.
Do not disconnect and store battery
modules over long periods of time
because this will degrade their capacity.
If used battery modules need to be
stored for short periods of time (up to
one week), then store them fully charged
in a cool (15-20°C or 59-68°F), dry
environment.
Batteries that have been stored or
disconnected should be recharged
before use.
Dispose of batteries according to local
regulations and not with ordinary waste.
After a new battery module is installed,
display the Battery Status Window to
ensure safe battery operation.
When delivered, the battery modules may
not be fully charged. Check the status of
the batteries via the user interface and,
if necessary, charge the battery before
use by connecting the ventilator to the
power supply.
Always recharge discharged batteries.
When not in use, the ventilator should
always be connected to the power supply
to ensure fully charged batteries.
When the ventilator is running on
batteries, the Servo Ultra Nebulizer is
disabled to reduce power consumption.

4.3 PATIENT CIRCUIT TEST
In Standby, the Patient circuit test may be
performed separately from the Pre-use check.
This is useful, for example, when changes are
made to the circuit or additional accessories
are connected. The test evaluates circuit
leakage and measures circuit compliance and
resistance.
SVX-9042
Press the Patient circuit test touchpad and
follow the on-screen instructions.
Follow the instructions in section Patient circuit
test/Y Sensor test.
The results from the Patient circuit test is
displayed in the Status>Patient circuit window.
Note: Considerable leakage may occur
around the endotracheal tube if it is
uncuffed. The combination of small tidal
volumes, leakage around the tube, and
activated compliance compensation may
trigger the Low Expiratory Minute Volume
alarm due to a very low expiratory flow
passing from the patient through the
expiratory channel. By observing the
difference between the Vti and Vte values
presented on the user interface, a leakage
can be detected and its extent easily
controlled. The first time an unacceptably
large leakage occurs around the tube,
correct this problem to avoid triggering the
Low Expiratory Minute Volume alarm. If the
leakage persists, either adjust the alarm
limit down to its lowest level (10 ml) or
permanently silence the alarm (see
page 179)—if this step is clinically
appropriate. Finally, if the leakage still has
not been remedied, deactivate the
compliance compensation to avoid
triggering the alarm. If the compliance
compensation is deactivated while in
Pressure Control, Pressure Support, or
SIMV (Pressure Control) ventilation modes,
then no further settings need to be adjusted.
However, in volume-related modes, the set
volumes must be adjusted.
WARNINGS!
A Pre-use check must always be done
before connecting the ventilator to a
patient.
The Patient circuit test does not replace
the Pre-use check.

4.11 SUCTIONING
4.11.1 SUCTION SUPPORT
The Suction Support function makes it
possible to automatically inhibit the ventilator
from cycling during a tracheal suction
procedure without activating alarms.
Suction Support includes:
pre-oxygenation/preparation phase
disconnect phase
post-oxygenation phase
WARNINGS!
Suction Support is not intended to be
used together with closed-suction
systems.
The minimum PEEP level during suction
support is 3 cmH2O. The ventilator will
adjust to the minimum level if the PEEP
level is below 3 cmH2O in order to detect
disconnection of the patient.
Notes:
Suction Support is not available in NIV
mode or when the O2 Breaths function is
activated.
During the disconnect phase in Suction
Support, the nebulizer is temporarily
paused.
When only one gas is connected, an
elevated oxygen level cannot be set
during the preparation phase. In this
case, the post-oxygenation phase will be
skipped.
Important: Alarms are turned off during
the disconnect phase for a maximum of 60
seconds. If the patient has not been
reconnected within 60 seconds, alarms are
activated.

4.11.2 CLOSED-SUCTION SYSTEMS
If a closed-suction system is used, the Suction
Support, Insp. hold and Exp. hold functions
should not be used. Pressure-based modes
(such as Pressure Control, Pressure Support,
Bi-Vent, SIMV (PC) + PS, or NAVA) should be
used. Settings should be adjusted to levels
suitable for the patient. Hospital guidelines for
suctioning should be followed.
4.12 RE-ADJUST THE OXYGEN
CELL
Note: This does not apply if the SERVO-i
Ventilator System has an O2 sensor fitted.
If the ventilator has been in continuous use for
an extended period, the measured O
concentration may drop due to normal
degradation of the oxygen cell. In order to
avoid nuisance alarms in this situation, it is
possible to temporarily adjust the O2 cell
during ventilation.
When the O2 cell adaptation function is
activated, the oxygen cell is re-adjusted so
that the current measured O2 concentration
is equal to the O2 concentration set by the
user. This temporary adjustment will be valid
until the ventilator is switched off.

6.1.1 WARNINGS
The following warnings apply to Non
Invasive Ventilation (NIV) only:
- Avoid high inspiratory pressure as it
may lead to gastric overdistention and
risk of aspiration. It may also cause
excessive leakage.
- Use of the Nebulizer is not
recommended.
- We recommend
ventilator-independent monitoring for
Nasal CPAP.
Ensure that PRVC, SIMV (PRVC) and VS
function properly (especially for small
patients):
- Avoid leakage (e.g. due to an uncuffed
endotracheal tube).
- If compliance compensation is used,
make sure that the compressible
volume of the patient circuit is not
changed after the Pre-use check /
Patient Circuit Test has been
performed (e.g. filling an active
humidifier with water after the test has
been made).
Note: Not all warnings apply to all modes.
WARNINGS!
Be sure to set alarm limits as appropriate
for each mode, especially:
- Minute Volume Alarm
- Apnea time
Self-triggering should be avoided. Do not
set the trigger sensitivity too high.
To protect the patient’s lungs from
excessive pressure it is important to set
the upper pressure limit to a suitable
value.

6.1.2 APPLICATION
The SERVO-i Ventilator System also contains
tools to assist the user in application of lung
protective methodologies.
6.1.3 SCOPE - VENTILATORY NEEDS
When required, all ventilation is provided for
mandatorily. When the patient is able to initiate
a breath, the ventilator supports and monitors
the patient´s breathing capability and controls
ventilation only if required.
The ventilator can be used for:
1.controlled ventilation
2.supported ventilation, or
3.spontaneous breathing/CPAP
It also allows for combined ventilatory control
or support. Spontaneous breathing efforts are
sensed during controlled ventilation, e.g.
Volume Control. Mandatory ventilation can be
used during supported/spontaneous
breathing, e.g. the enhanced SIMV
functionality.
The Automode functionality continuously
adapts to the patient´s breathing capability.

6.3 SETTINGS
6.3.1 TRIGGER FUNCTIONALITY
Trigger sensitivity determines the level of
patient effort needed to trigger the ventilator
to inspiration.
Trigger sensitivity can be set as flow triggering
(settings above zero) or pressure triggering
(settings below zero). Normally flow triggering
is preferable as this enables the patient to
breathe with less effort.
The sensitivity is set as high as possible
without self-triggering. This ensures that
triggering is patient initiated and avoids
auto-cycling by the ventilator.
Important: In NIV it is not possible to set
trigger sensitivity.
Trigg. PressureTrigg. Flow
-2010
WHITEGREENRED
06
WARNINGS!
WARNING! The trigger sensitivity bar
has different colors based on the
setting. A green bar indicates a normal
setting for flow triggering. The risk of
self-triggering increases when the bar
is red. A white bar indicates pressure
triggering.
WARNING! If the trigger sensitivity is
set too high, a self triggering
(auto-triggering) condition may be
reached. This condition can also be
reached if there is leakage in the
breathing system, e.g. if an uncuffed
endotracheal tube is used. Triggering
will then be initiated by the system and
not by the patient. This should always
be avoided by decreasing the trigger
sensitivity.
During expiration, the ventilator continuously
delivers a gas flow (bias flow), which is
measured in the expiratory channel. For details
of the bias flow, see Technical data on
page 226.
82
SERVO-i VENTILATOR SYSTEM V7.0, User´s Manual
| Ventilation, modes and functions |
6 |
At a trigger sensitivity level above zero (0), The
ventilator senses deviations in the bias flow
delivered during expiration. These deviations
are caused by the inspiratory efforts of the
patient. The further to the right on the scale,
the more sensitive is the trigger function.
At a trigger sensitivity level below zero (0), the
ventilator senses deviations in the pressure
below PEEP created by the patient. The
pressure below PEEP required to initiate a
breath is shown when the setting is made. The
further to the left on the scale, the more effort
is required to trigger.
6.3.2 INSPIRATORY RISE TIME
100 %
t
Time to peak inspiratory flow or pressure at
the start of each breath as a percentage of the
respiratory cycle time or in seconds. Increased
rise time will affect the rate of flow/pressure
increase and can be evaluated by the shape
of the flow and pressure waveforms.
SERVO-i VENTILATOR SYSTEM V7.0, User´s Manual
Inspiratory rise time (%) is applicable in
Pressure Control, Volume Control, PRVC,
SIMV-Volume Control, SIMV-Pressure Control,
SIMV-PRVC. Setting can be in the range
0-20% of the respiratory cycle time.
83
| Ventilation, modes and functions |
| 6
Inspiratory rise time set in seconds is
applicable in Pressure Support, Volume
Support and Bi-Vent. For adults the range is
0-0.4 seconds and for infants the range is
0-0.2 seconds.
Note: When the ventilator is configured for
setting of Inspiration time, the unit for
Inspiratory rise time then automatically
switches to seconds for all ventilation
modes.
Normally in supported modes the Inspiratory
rise time should be increased from the default
setting and to give more comfort to the
patient.
6.3.3 TRIGGER TIMEOUT
Trigger Timeout is the maximum allowed
apnea time in Automode before controlled
ventilation is activated.
Initially the ventilator adapts with a dynamic
Trigger Timeout limit. This means that for the
spontaneously triggering patient the timeout
increases successively during the first ten
breaths.
For Automode trigger timeout setting ranges,
see section 230 on page 230.
6.3.4 PEEP
PEEP
SVX-646_EN
A Positive End Expiratory Pressure is
maintained in the alveoli and may prevent the
collapse of the airways.
For Positive End Expiratory Pressure setting
ranges, see section 230 on page 231
6.3.5 I:E RATIO / INSPIRATION TIME
The setting of breathing parameters in
SERVO-i Ventilator System can be configured
in two different ways, based on:
I:E ratio (independent of changes of e.g. the
breathing frequency) or,
Inspiration time in seconds (independent of
changes of e.g. the breathing frequency),
to better meet the requirements for infant
care.
When the ventilator is configured for setting
of Inspiration time, the unit for Pause time and
Insp. rise time then automatically switches to
seconds. The resulting I:E ratio for each setting
is shown in the upper right information area
of the ventilation mode window.
84
As the inspiration time is explicitly set, a
change of for example the Respiratory Rate
will affect the I:E ratio. As a safety precaution,
it will therefore be indicated when the resulting
I:E ratio passes 1:1 in either direction.
SERVO-i VENTILATOR SYSTEM V7.0, User´s Manual

Note: The touchpad Breath cycle time is
not shown when an SIMV mode is selected,
since there is no need to set Breath cycle
time when Inspiration time is directly set.
6.3.6 INSPIRATORY CYCLE-OFF
SVX-205_XX
Inspiratory Cycle-off is the point at which
inspiration changes to expiration in
spontaneous and supported modes of
ventilation. A decrease of the inspiratory flow
to a preset level causes the ventilator to switch
to expiration. This preset level is measured as
a percentage of the maximum flow during
inspiration.
For inspiratory cycle off setting ranges, see
section 230 on page 230.

6.3.7 BREATH CYCLE TIME
This is the length of the breath i.e. the total
cycle time of the mandatory breath in SIMV
(inspiration, pause plus expiration).
Note: The touchpad Breath cycle time is
not shown when an SIMV mode is selected
and inspiration time is configured. Refer to
heading I:E ratio / Inspiration times.
6.3.9 CONTROLLED / SUPPORTED
PRESSURE LEVEL
PC (Pressure Control level) above PEEP is the
set inspiratory pressure level for each
mandatory breath in Pressure Control and
SIMV (PC) + PS, and also for backup
ventilation in Pressure Support and NAVA.
PS (Pressure Support level) above PEEP is the
set inspiratory pressure support level for
triggered breaths in Pressure Support, SIMV
modes and Bi-Vent.
6.3.10 O2 CONCENTRATION
The setting range for the gas mixer is 21% O
to 100% O2. The alarm limits are automatically
set at approximately 5% O2 above or below
the set concentration value. The alarm is
delayed 40 seconds after changing the O
2
concentration setting. There is also an
absolute minimum alarm limit of 18% O2 which
is independent of operating settings.

6.3.8 VOLUME SETTING
Depending on the ventilator configuration the
inspiratory volume can be set as:
Minute Volume or,
Tidal Volume
86
SERVO-i VENTILATOR SYSTEM V7.0, User´s Manual
6.3.11 RESPIRATORY RATE / SIMV RATE
Respiratory rate is the number of controlled
mandatory breaths per minute in controlled
modes excluding SIMV. The respiratory rate
is also used for calculation of tidal volume if
the ventilator is configured for Minute volume
setting. SIMV rate is the number of controlled
mandatory breaths in SIMV modes.

and compliance of the respiratory system. The
set tidal volume will always be delivered. An
increase in the resistance and decrease in
compliance will lead to an increased airway
pressure. To protect the patient's lungs from
excessive pressure, it is very important to set
the upper pressure limit to a suitable value.
6.4.2 FLOW ADAPTATION
It is possible for the patient to trigger extra
breaths if they can overcome the pre-set
trigger sensitivity. It is also possible for the
patient, by their own inspiratory efforts, to
receive a higher inspiratory flow and Tidal
Volume during an inspiration than pre-set. The
flow during inspiration is constant. The patient
can trigger extra breaths.

Volume Controlled ventilation has, by tradition,
delivered each breath with a constant flow and
constant inspiratory and expiratory times,
according to the settings. The SERVO-i
Ventilator System gives the possibility to the
patient to modify both flow rate and timing.
So, if a pressure drop of 3 cmH
O is detected
2
during inspiration, the ventilator cycles to
Pressure Support with a resulting increase in
inspiratory flow. When the flow decreases to
the calculated target level this flow will be
maintained until the set Tidal Volume is
delivered.
The illustrated waveform show some practical
consequences of this enhanced functionality.
the top waveform shows the trace for a
normal Volume Controlled breath
the second waveform shows a situation
when inspiration is prematurely interrupted
as the set tidal volume has been delivered
the third waveform shows a situation where
the patient maintains a flow rate higher than
the calculated target value. The set Tidal
Volume has been delivered when calculated
target flow is reached and the inspiration is
prematurely interrupted
the bottom waveform, shows a situation
where the increased flow rate is maintained
into the expiratory period. The patient will
receive a higher tidal volume than set due
to a higher flow/volume demand than
calculated.

6.5 PRESSURE CONTROL
6.5.1 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
PRESSURE CONTROL
The Pressure Controlled mode is a controlled
breathing mode.
Breaths are delivered mandatorily at a preset
pressure level, causing a decelerating flow
pattern.
The following parameters are set:
1.PC (Pressure Control level) above PEEP
(cmH2O)
2.Respiratory Rate (b/min)
3.PEEP (cmH2O)
4.Oxygen concentration (%)
5.I:E ratio / Insp. time
6.Inspiratory rise time (%/s)
7.Trigg. Flow / Trigg. Pressure
| Ventilation, modes and functions |
The delivered volume is dependent upon the
pressure above PEEP, lung compliance and
resistance in the patient tube system and
airways. This means that the Tidal Volume can
vary. Pressure Controlled mode is preferred
when there is leakage in the breathing system
e.g. due to uncuffed endotracheal tube or in
situations when the maximum airway pressure
must be controlled. The flow during inspiration
is decelerating. The patient can trigger extra
breaths. If the patient tries to exhale during
the inspiration, the expiratory valve will allow
exhalation as long as the pressure is more
than 3 cmH2O above the set pressure level.
As the delivered tidal volume can vary it is very
important to set alarm limits for Minute Volume
to adequate levels.

6.6 PRESSURE REGULATED VOLUME CONTROL
6.6.1 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION PRVC
The Pressure Regulated Volume Control
(PRVC) mode is a controlled breathing mode.
Breaths are delivered mandatorily to assure
preset volumes, with a constant inspiratory
pressure continuously adapting to the patient´s
condition. The flow pattern is decelerating.
The ventilator delivers a pre-set Tidal Volume.
The pressure is automatically regulated to
deliver the pre-set volume but limited to
5 cmH2O below the set upper pressure limit.
The SERVO-i Ventilator System can be
configured to set Tidal Volume or Minute
Volume. The following parameters are set:
1.Tidal Volume (ml) or Minute Volume (l/min)
2.Respiratory Rate (b/min)
3.PEEP (cmH2O)
4.Oxygen concentration (%)
5.I:E ratio / Insp. time
6.Inspiratory rise time (%/s)

The first breath of a start sequence is a
volume-controlled test breath with Pause time
set to 10%. The measured pause pressure of
this breath is then used as the pressure level
for the following breath. An alarm is activated
if the pressure level required to achieve the
set target volume cannot be delivered due to
a lower setting of the Upper pressure limit
(- 5 cmH2O).

6.7 VOLUME SUPPORT
6.7.1 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION VOLUME
SUPPORT
A patient-adapted constant inspiratory support
is supplied when activated by patient effort.
The resulting volume is continuously
monitored and the constant inspiratory
pressure automatically adjusts to the required
level. The patient determines frequency and
duration of the breaths which show a
decelerating flow pattern.
The Volume Support mode is a patient initiated
breathing mode, where the patient will be
given support in proportion to their inspiratory
effort and the target Tidal Volume.

SVX-657_EN
The start breath is given with 10 cmH2O
support. From that breath the ventilator
calculates and continuously regulates the
pressure needed to deliver the pre-set Tidal
Volume.
During the next 3 breaths of the start up
sequence the maximum pressure increase is
20 cmH2O for each breath. After the start up
sequence the pressure increases or decreases
in steps of maximum 3 cmH2O.
If the delivered Tidal Volume decreases below
the set Tidal Volume the pressure support level
is increased in steps of maximum 3 cmH2O
until preset Tidal Volume is delivered. If the
pressure support level causes a larger Tidal
Volume than preset, the support pressure is
lowered in steps of maximum 3 cmH2O until
the preset Tidal Volume is delivered.
For maximum inspiration time, see section
Functions in ventilation modes on page 235.
An alarm is activated if the pressure level
required to achieve the set target volume
cannot be delivered due to a lower setting of
the upper pressure limit - 5 cmH2O.
In this mode it is also important to set the
apnea time appropriate to the individual
patient situation. If this time is reached then
the ventilator will automatically switch to
backup ventilation. In all spontaneous modes
it is important to set the Minute Volume alarm.
