ABSTRACT
Objective:To test the ventilator system calibration error, and analyze the effects of mechanical ventilation parameters and the related safety.Methods: Based on the system calibration principle of ventilator, the mechanical ventilation performance of the ventilator with calibration error was tested by the gas analyzer and the correlation of mechanical ventilation parameters and the system calibration error was analyzed.Results:The pressure drop value and a lower compliance can affect the tidal volume, the mean airway pressure and the peep values. Conclusion: The system calibration is important before operating mechanical ventilation. It can make safe, accurate and efficient in mechanical ventilation with controlling the system calibration error in a limited range.
