1, 2, 3. Lung compliance assessment phase. After obtaining the compliance value, the ventilator
automatically adjusts a pressure value in order to reach 60% of the adjusted volume. Then, the
ventilator automatically adjusts the pressure at each three PCV cycles.
4,5. Beginning of pressure automatic control in order to reach the defined volume.
6. If pressure and flow triggers are active, the ventilator then seeks to synchronize the beginning of
the next inspiration to the patient’s effort, according to the configured trigger. The patient’s effort
“window” detection to synchronize begins on the last fourth period of the controlled ventilation.
7. Reached Volume.
•
By reaching the pressure limit defined on the Maximum Pressure adjustment (LIMITED
PRESSURE alarm), the Adjusted Volume IS NOT DELIVERED.
•
Default values are only an initial reference.
•
Readjust the ventilation parameters according to the patient’s needs.
•
If the patient makes inspiratory efforts and triggers are suitably set, the ventilatory mode becomes
assisted-controlled. In this situation, the monitored breathing rate can be significantly higher than the
set one.
•
Automatic pressure control occurs with PEEP+5cmH2O and PLimit
