Although the SLE5000 has not been validated for use with the Miniflow we are aware that a number of our customers have used them for CPAP in the past. I understand that it will work although there may be spurious alarms since the SLE5000 was designed for invasive ventilation only. Whilst it seems to work, we cannot recommend this combination since it has not been validated. The new SLE6000 is validated for use with both prongs and masks on the Miniflow, and the alarms have been adjusted to allow for this.
In sle 5000
Cpap mode
Is invasive or non invasive???
Could it be work in nasal pronge or nasal mask via mini flow circuit?
