  • Cause
    During the course of routine internal testing drager detected isolated leakages at the check valve (one way valve of the inspiration branch) of the above mentioned disposable paediatric ventilation circuit. leakage at the check valve can result in a patient's exhaled gas entering into the breathing circuit, which could lead to the rebreathing of the exhaled gas with subsequent reduced oxygen concentration for the patient. this leakage is not detected during the ventilator operational readiness check. to date, drager has not received any complaints associated with this issue.Further detailed investigations have shown that the check valve functions properly with no leak observed at positive end-expiratory pressures above 5 mbar i cmh20. the problem only occurs at peep values below 5 mbar i cmh20.
