General Performance

Operation shall support mandatory Ventilation (Primary function / minimum)

Operation shall support spontaneous Ventilation (Secondary function / design goal)

Volume Control (Primary function / minimum)

Pressure Control (Secondary function / design goal) 5-60 +/- 5 cmH2O

Pressure Support 10-15+/-5 cmH2O; may be either flow- or pressure-triggered (Secondary function / design goal)

Apnea back-up shall kick in at 30 or 60 seconds (+/-5sec) (Secondary function / design goal)

flow rate shall > 60 liters per minute

PEEP Pressure: 5-15 cmH2O in increments of 5 cmH20 (+/-5 cmH2O)

Inspiratory :Expiratory ratio during Mandatory Ventilation: 1:2, 1:3, and 1:4 options shall be available (click-stop)

The respiratory rate shall deliver 10-30 breaths per minute in increments of 2 bpm

Tidal volume options available shall be as following:Option #1: Input height and gender for 6cc/kg TV (+/- 10% or 10mL)Option #2: 350cc (for average woman) and 450cc (for average man) (+/- 10% or 10mL)Option #3: 400cc only (+/- 10% or 10mL)Option #4: 300-600cc adjustable in 100cc increments (+/- 10% or 10mL)

Infection Control

All components coming in contact with the patients breath must be disposable OR sterilizable (e.g., autoclavable)

0.22um or smaller filter shall be on patient inspiration and expiration pathway

Viral filter must be installed on ventilator inlet gas to allow filtration

All external surfaces must not degrade with application of standard agents for disinfection (e.g. bleach solution)

Gas

Gas connectors shall be compatible with high pressure (~50psi) gas source (i.e., pipeline supply) OR low-flow inlet

Oxygen delivery options shall be as followingOption #1: FiO2 (21%+10%, 50%+/- 10%, 100% -10%)Option #2: adjustable between room air (21%) and 100% (+/-10%)

Electric

Ventilator shall be powered by 120VAC

Electrical components shall comply with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2

None with labeling (primary function)

Ventilator shall have 1 hour (secondary function / design goal) of battery back - up

Alarms and Monitoring

(REMOVE: Inlet Gas (O2)) or Power supply failure shall trigger alarmO2 alarm duplicated by SR-24

Alarm shall trigger when inspiratory airway pressure exceeded limits:Pplat <30-35 cmH2OPeak P no more than 2 cmH2O greater than PplatFail-safe valve opens at 60cmH2O (powered or un-powered)

Alarm shall trigger when apnea (i.e. patient not breathing) on spontaneous mode (secondary)

Alarm shall trigger when inspiratory and PEEP pressure not achieved (i.e. disconnection)

Alarm shall trigger when tidal volume not achieved or exceeded (with ~20% tolerance)

Alarm shall trigger when O2 disconnection occurs

Alarm Volume shall be 60 to 80 dBA at one meter (+/- 5 dBA)

Actual Value (TV, RR, PEEP, FiO2, Flow Rate, PIP) shall be monitored

Ventilator Specific Standards

Durability of the ventilator shall =2,000 hours

Ventilator shall be compatible with readily available patient circuits, (ISO 5356-1 fittings)

Ventilator shall comply with FDA Ventilator Guidance Standards (i.e. ISO 80601-2-12)

Ventilator shall comply with general Medical Device Guidance Standards (e.g. ISO 13485, ISO 14971, ISO 62304, ISO 62366)
