Volume/Pressure Control Mode: Expiration
During expiration, the inspiratory valve remains closed thus preventing
rebreathing into the inspiratory branch.
The expiratory gas from the lung flows through the expiratory hose, the flow
sensor, the PEEP/Pmax valve, the expiratory valve, and through the absorber
back into the breathing bag mixing with fresh gas also flowing into the breath-
ing bag.
The ventilator's piston moves back drawing the gas mixture needed for the
next inspiration into the piston space.
