5.2 Ventilation Modes
The e600 ventilator is equipped with a number of ventilation modes to enable
the healthcare provider to tailor the ventilator settings to the patient's specific
respiratory requirements. Ventilation could be delivered invasively (ET tube)
or non-invasively (mask).
In all modes, should the patient demand more flow than set by Health care
provider, he/she can inhale the required volume from ambient.
Each ventilation mode has a default setting (based on the initial patient size
setting selection on startup) which will be initiated on selection of that specific
ventilation mode if no changes to the settings are made.
Note
When switching between ventilation modes, any shared parameter will be
carried over and any new parameter will be set to the default.
5.2.1 A/C V
(Assist Control Ventilation).
In AC/ mode (Figure 10) the ventilator can deliver volume ventilation (VCV)
with Tidal Volume and ventilation Rate setting according to patient size
(see Table-2 below).
During A/C V mode, the ventilator will deliver Controlled Mandatory
Ventilation (CMV) regardless of any patient's effort if the trigger (Trig.) is
disabled (displayed with (-)).
The default trigger for A/C V is 3 L/min but can be adjusted up to 15 L/min.
If no inspiratory effort is detected during the trigger window, the ventilator
will initiate mandatory ventilation at the end of trigger window. Should the
patient demand more flow than set by user, he/she can withdraw the
excess from ambient.
