Your ventilator
The Trilogy ventilator will continuously support you wherever you go
Philips Trilogy provides respiratory support to meet your prescribed needs, up to 24 hours a day. Trilogy is portable with internal, hot-swappable detachable, and external batteries to provide greater freedom and mobility with continuous ventilation.
The Trilogy ventilator will allow your clinician to have a close look into your ventilator therapy
Trilogy is able to wirelessly connect to the Philips Care Orchestrator patient management system and also has an SD card providing access to your therapy data so that your care team can have a complete view into your therapy at home.
Set-up
- Connect your circuit to the air outlet
Passive circuit
If you have a single tube, you simply need to connect the tube to the air outlet. An exhalation port will need to be connected directly to your tracheostomy tube or mask (unless your mask already has an integrated leak*).
* It is important to make sure that the leak hole is not blocked off to allow exhalation.
Active circuit
If using the circuit with a valve:
• Connect tube A to the air outlet
• Connect pressure line B to the top connector
• Connect valve line C to the bottom connector
• Connect to the valve and to your mask or tracheostomy tube
Active flow circuit
If using the valve circuit with flow sensor:
• Connect tube A to the air outlet
• Connect flow lines B and C to the top connectors (white striped flow line on top)
• Connect exhalation valve line D to the bottom connector
• Connect to the valve, to the flow sensor, and then to your mask or tracheostomy tube
- Connect your oxygen supply
If you have been prescribed supplemental oxygen, connect the oxygen source to the oxygen inlet located at the back of the ventilator.
Turn on the oxygen source to the prescribed flow rate.*

Alarms
To silence alarm, press alarm indicator/audio pause button 
or press left (reset) button to reset alarm.
| Screen display or error | User action |
| Loss of power Device shuts down | Press start/stop button. If using AC power, try plugging device into alternate AC power source. If loss of power continues, connect a fully charged detachable or external battery to the device or connect patient to an alternate source of ventilation while contacting homecare provider or healthcare specialist. |
| Low battery | Switch to an alternate battery, or switch to AC power source and recharge low battery. |
| Ventilator inoperative | Select right button to shut off device and silence alarm. Connect patient to alternate source of ventilation and contact homecare provider or healthcare specialist. |
| Ventilator service required | The machine has to be serviced. Connect patient to alternate source of ventilation and contact your healthcare professional as soon as possible. |
| High temperature, or battery not charging due to high temperature | Make sure tubing is not under any bedding. Check inlet filter and clean or replace it if needed. Make sure cooling vents are not blocked. If the ventilator is running off of the internal or detachable battery, move to a cooler location and/or power the device with AC power or a lead-acid battery. |
| High or low expiratory pressure | Make sure tubing is not kinked or pinched. If alarm continues, clinician should verify patient status. |
| High Vt or low Vt | Press left (reset) button to reset alarm. If alarm continues, clinician should verify patient status. |
| Apnea | If using an active circuit, check proximal pressure line to ensure it is not pinched or has water condensation. If alarm continues, clinician should verify patient status. |
| Check circuit | Check patient circuit to make sure it is set up as your healthcare professional specified (check circuit set-up section). Make sure there is no kinked or pinched tubing. Make sure tubing is properly attached. Make sure all tubing and exhalation devices are clean and free of condensation. If using active exhalation circuit, make sure diaphragm is inserted correctly and is not wrinkled or kinked. |
| Low Circuit Leak | If using a mask with integrated leak port, check to make sure leak holes are not obstructed. If using a mask without integrated leak or a trach, make sure the circuit is correctly set up and the exhalation port is well connected. Make sure exhalation device is clean and functioning properly. |
| Circuit Disconnect | Check breathing circuit and reconnect it if it has become disconnected, check mask seal or tracheostomy connection, or fix the leak. |
| High Internal Oxygen | Disconnect supplemental oxygen from device. Check external oxygen connection; reconnect. If alarm continues, disconnect supplemental oxygen and contact your homecare provider or healthcare specialist. |
If the alarm continues, contact homecare provider or healthcare specialist.
When you hear or see a high priority alarm, respond immediately, as a high priority alarm alerts you to critical issues with the patient’s breathing or the ventilator’s operation. Always look at the patient before attending to the equipment to ensure that he or she is being properly ventilated. When you are sure the patient is stable, turn your attention to the ventilator.
