Notice:
How quickly the set flow is actually reached depends on
the patient, any leakage (NIV) and on the set ventilation
parameters.
With this function you can set the flow progress.
You can make the following settings:
Parameters
Flow progress
If you select a plateau time (see "Plateau time" on
page 154) for the flow progress, for the duration of the
plateau time, no gas will be administered to the patient
and at the same time expiration will be prevented.
With this function you can set the inspiratory and
expiratory trigger threshold and the trigger time slot.
You can make the following settings:
Parameters
Inspiration
Expiration
Trigger time slot
The "Trigger time slot" function (only available in the
aPCV ventilation mode) can be used to set in which phase
of the expiration the patient can trigger a mandatory
mechanical breath. The setting can be performed in 100%
of the expiration time before the next mechanical breath.
If you set the trigger time slot to 0% Te, the patient has no
possibility of triggering a mandatory mechanical breath
and the ventilation could be viewed as purely controlled
