Ventilation Mode Simv/Ps (Optional) - Dräger Fabius plus Instructions For Use Manual

Ventilation mode SIMV/PS (optional)

The ventilation mode SIMV (synchronized
intermittent mandatory ventilation) is a mixture of
ventilation and spontaneous breathing. In
ventilation SIMV mode, the patient can breathe
spontaneously. The ventilation is done
synchronously to the inspiratory effort of the
patient.
The mandatory breaths are defined based on the
following parameters:
– VT
– Freq
– TINSP
– TIP:TI
– PEEP
To support the inspiratory effort of the patient in
ventilation SIMV mode, pressure support ∆PPS
can be switched on. The setting of ∆PPS to
another value than OFF activates the mode
Pressure Support, see chapter ''Ventilation mode
Pressure Support (optional)'' on page 103.
