SELECTING THE PROPER FLOW MODE AND SETTING
The recommendations of the qualied clinician responsible for the patient’s care should always be followed when instructing
patients on the use of Continuous or Pulse Dose Mode.
SELECTING CONTINUOUS FLOW MODE
When delivered from SeQual, the Eclipse is set to Continuous Flow Mode. Refer your patient to the Users Manual for instructions
on how to select Continuous Flow Mode. Demonstrate the procedure on the device. Set the prescribed ow using the increase
or decrease ow rate buttons
SELECTING PULSE DOSE MODE
Pulse Dose Mode, delivers a measured bolus of oxygen pulse at the beginning of each inspiration. Refer to the Users
Manual for instructions on how to select Pulse Dose Mode. Demonstrate the procedure for your patient. Set the prescribed
ow using the increase or decrease buttons. Verify that the patient is able to adequately trigger the oxygen delivery while
speaking, sitting quietly, and walking. If the patient is not able to satisfactorily trigger oxygen delivery, the Pulse Sensitivity
may need to be adjusted.
Review with the patient the breath rate capabilities of Pulse Dose Mode for their prescription.
The display gives an approximate level of remaining battery power.
If the patient is dependent on oxygen therapy, the users should
always have a backup oxygen supply or access to AC or DC Power
Supply in the event of loss of battery power.
