Therapy Modes

The device provides Pressure Control Ventilation (PCV) and Volume
Control Ventilation (VCV) for non-invasive and invasive patients.
Pressure Control ventilation delivers a prescribed pressure to
the patient according to set breath rate and set inspiration time
parameters. This means that each breath is controlled so that a
prescribed amount of pressure is delivered to the patient. The device
offers six different Pressure Control modes of operation:
•
CPAP – Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
•
S – Spontaneous Ventilation
•
S/T – Spontaneous/Timed Ventilation
•
T – Timed Ventilation
•
PC – Pressure Control Ventilation
•
PC-SIMV – Pressure Controlled Synchronized Intermittent
Mandatory Ventilation
Volume Control ventilation delivers a prescribed inspired tidal
volume to the patient according to set breath rate and set inspiratory
time parameters. This means that each breath is controlled so that a
prescribed tidal volume is delivered to the patient. The device offers
three different Volume Control modes of operation:
•
AC – Assist Control Ventilation
•
CV – Control Ventilation
•
SIMV – Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation
