SETTING VENTILATION PARAMETERS IN ASSIST/CONTROL VENTILATION MODE
In this mode, the ventilation system provides Tidal Volume during inhalation for assisted and mandatory breaths.
An assisted breath is started when there is patient effort, but it is ended when the Inspiratory Time setting has
been met. A mandatory breath is delivered if the patient does not breathe within the prescribed Breath Rate
setting. This ensures that the patient receives a minimum number of breaths per minute.
