9.7.6 Tidal Calculated Settings
The HomeChoice/HomeChoice PRO APD System calculates the number of night
cycles and the Dwell Time. For a Tidal therapy, the system also calculates Tidal
Volume and ultrafiltration (UF) per cycle. The calculated values are shown on the
display screen when you press
STOP after you have completed reviewing your
therapy settings.
