PSVPro™ Ventilation Mode
• Pressure supported ventilation with apnea backup
• Clinician sets the Psupport and PEEP levels, the patient establishes the rate, inspiratory flow and inspiratory time
• Tidal volume is determined by the pressure, lung characteristics and patient effort
• Apnea backup mode (SIMV PCV) is provided if the patient stops breathing
• In backup mode, the Backup Mode active alarm is shown until PSVPro™ Ventilation Mode is reinstated or another
ventilation mode is selected
PSVPro mode settings:
• Psupport
• PEEP
• Trig Window
• Flow Trigger
• End of Breath
• Pmax
• Backup Time
• Pinsp
• RR
• Tinsp
• Rise Rate
• Exit Backup

CPAP + PSV mode

• Provides a constant support pressure for spontaneously breathing patients once the ventilator senses an
inspiratory effort
• The patient establishes the rate, inspiratory flow, and inspiratory time
• The tidal volume is determined by the pressure, lung characteristics, and patient effort.
• Spontaneous breaths that occur are indicated by a color change in the waveform
