3. If the pressure or flow trigger is activated, the ventilator seeks to synchronize at the beginning of
the next inspiration with the patient’s effort, according to the established levels. The information of
what type of trigger activated the inspiratory cyc
le is informed on the screen’s messages and status
area. The detection of the patient’s inspiratory effort in order to synchronize occurs at any moment
during the expiratory time.
•
If the patient makes inspiratory efforts and triggers are suitably set, the ventilatory mode becomes
assisted-controlled. In this situation, the monitored breathing frequency can be significantly higher than
the set one.
4. The rise time can be adjusted by T
RISE
(RISE TIME), the initial peak flow. Generally, it is less than
T
RISE
= 0 (depending on the respiratory circuit resistance and compliance).
•
Default values are only an initial reference.
•
Readjust the ventilation parameters according to the patient’s needs.
