4.8.7 VC-VAC BABY

Volume targeted controlled ventilation synchronised
with the patient if the inspiratory trigger for paediatric
and neonatal patients is active.
•
The system displays all PRP relative to the set
operating mode.
VC/VAC BABY is a volume-targeted controlled ventilation (Vte), synchronised with the
patient's breaths if the inspiratory trigger (Tr. I) is activated.
The Operative Mode VC/VAC BABY is active only with patients: PAEDIATRIC and
NEONATAL.
In this type of ventilation the work of breathing is fully assumed by the lung ventilator, and
therefore it is used when the patient is unable to breath on his own, or in order to assure
an efficient pre-set current volume and therefore the mechanical ventilation must fully
replace the spontaneous breathing.
The volume (Vte) is pre-set and generated in a pre-set time (RR and I:E) and determines
the characteristics and the pressure range necessary to reach the pre-set amount of gas
mixture that must be provided.

The VC/VAC BABY operating mode also includes two additional
parameters identifying the maximum and the minimum pressure limit (PMax
- Pmin) that can be reached during ventilation.
