What is it?
PressureLink is an optional coupling of Pinsp and PEEP, when PressureLink is active Pinsp and PEEP are connected and if you set one of them, also the other one is modified.

How to use it?
• Select one parameter (Pinsp or PEEP) • Touch the “Link” Button • The corresponding parameter is also selected • Both pressures become adjustable simultaneously • “Driving pressure” ∆P is kept constant
Why is it relevant?
Driving pressure is one of the most important settings in order to perform recruitment maneuvers and to avoid lung damage induced by the ventilator.Having a constant driving pressure is also allowing to have less interactions with the user interface of the ventilator, resulting in less potential errors.
With PressureLink you can perfrom recrutiment maneuvers, reducing the interaction with the device, while keeping the driving pressure constantt.
Why is it helpful to improve outcomes?
