a. Results are expressed at ATPD (Ambient Temperature and Pressure, Dry).
b. Accuracy may be reduced by the presence of leaks, supplemental oxygen, tidal volumes <100 mL
or minute ventilation <3 L/min.
c. Measurement accuracy verified as per ISO 10651-6:2004 for Home Care Ventilatory Support
Devices (Figure 101 and Table 101).
