lüll Ventilator waveforms and the physiology of pressure support ventilation Hess DRRespir Care 2005[Feb]; 50 (2): 166-86; discussion 183-6Pressure support ventilation (PSV) is a commonly used mode. It is patient-triggered, pressure-limited, and (normally) flow-cycled. Triggering difficulty occurring during PSV is usually due to intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure. The airway pressure generated at the initiation of inhalation is determined by the pressure support setting and the pressure rise time (pressurization rate) settings on the ventilator. The rise-time setting is clinician-adjustable on many current-generation ventilators. Flow delivery during PSV is determined by the pressure support setting, the pressure generated by the respiratory muscles, and respiratory system mechanics. The delivered tidal volume is determined by the area under the flow-time curve. Patient-ventilator dyssynchrony may occur during PSV if the flow at which the ventilator cycles to exhalation does not coincide with the termination of neural inspiration. The newer generation ventilators offer clinician-adjustable flow-termination during PSV. Ventilator waveforms may be useful to appropriately adjust the ventilator during PSV.|*Ventilators, Mechanical[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Data Display[MESH]|Equipment Design[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Hyperventilation/physiopathology[MESH]|Models, Biological[MESH]|Respiration Disorders/*physiopathology/*therapy[MESH]|Respiration, Artificial/*instrumentation/methods[MESH]|Respiratory Mechanics[MESH] |
