Abstract:The functional degradation of different parts of the ventilator can result in disagreement
between the output value and the indication value, which will mislead medical staff in making wrong
decisions in clinical diagnosis and treatment. The paired test and chi-square test were used in this paper
respectively for analysis of the difference between output errors and indication errors and comparison of
the difference between the output qualified rate and indication qualified rate, which was intended to have
a profound understanding of the causes of differences. According to the statistical results, the output error
was remarkably less than the indication error (output oxygen concentration = 100%, 80%, 60%, 40% and
21% respectively, P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between two qualified rates (P=0.056).
The results showed that, as the use time of the ventilator increased, greater deviations in FiO2 (Fraction
of Inspiration O2) would be generated.
