Glossary
IPAP
Inspiratory positive airway pressure. A control setting.
The application and maintenance of pressure above
atmospheric at the airway throughout the inspiration
phase of positive-pressure mechanical ventilation.
I-trigger Inspiratory trigger sensitivity
MV The accumulated expired tidal volume in one minute.
MV-leak
The accumulated leakage (inspiratory volume minus
expiratory volume) in one minute.
MV-spn.
The accumulated spontaneous expired tidal volume in
one minute.
