Chapter 13
Percent Leak When the neonatal software option is loaded on the ventilator, a % Leak
window appears on the Patient Data screen. The window displays the
estimated leak of the delivered volume as a percentage. The % Leak value is
updated at the beginning of each inhalation. The % Leak is available for all
patient types when the neonatal software option is loaded. While the estimate
for percent leak is not a precise measurement it can be used to trend relative
changes in leak delivered volume.
