I will be tkaing the Trilogy 100 with me on a trip. I will not be using it while flying, but are there issues with taking this on a plane as carry-on luggage?
Having issues with the oxygen elbow on this vent. At a higher flow rate (5lpm) there is a air leak sound coming from behind. When the elbow is repositioned and the sound stops the oxygen concentrator high pressure alarm sounds.
Unsure of the amount of O2 getting to the patient so, I had to use a pressure line adaptor in front of the bacteria filer in the circuit. This should not be happening, the Trilogy manual states it is capable of 15 lpm flow rate.
Also, tried 2 elbows and switched out the vent with back up vent. In addition, I hooked the patient up to a cylinder at 5 lpm and the sound was still present.
COPD patient is on AVAPS-AE mode on a trilogy NIV and on auto respiratory rate and auto teak trigger. Patients Spo2 is dropping and Co2 is increasing at night. Patient is on 6 LPM. O2. What could be causing this RE: Philips - Trilogy 100

The system streamlines the ventilation process with interchangeable active and passive exhalation ports and the flexibility to choose the best available circuit and patient interface. Trilogy100 can accommodate a mask, mouthpiece or tracheostomy. The portable ventilator also can eliminate cumbersome valves and tubing by utilizing the passive circuit with Whisper Swivel II for invasive ventilation. The design includes detachable, internal, and external power options, with up to six hours of battery capacity.
