Q
  1. Servo i/u in VTV adjusts what? based on what? can this vent function with a ETT leak? why or why not?
  2. drager VN (500) in VTV adjusts what? based on what? can this vent function with a ETT leak? why or why not?
  3. how does volume targeted ventilation work?
A
  1. adjusts PIP, based on inspiratory Vt, NOT function with a large ETT leak because inspiratory Vt will be higher than expiratory therefore vent will give a Vt in the middle of these two values not the Vt set.
  2. adjusts PIP, based on calculated Vt, can function up to a 50% leak because vent adjusts pressure based on the calculation of Vt.
  3. set Vt, pressure will increase or decrease in order to achieve set Vt based off the previous breath

A
  1. the fixed breath rate and the fixed inspiration time set by the clinician are supplied regardless of patient effort.
  2. inspiration time is present in the PAC mode. There is no spontaneous/flow cycling. The inspiration can be triggered by the patient when respiratory rate is above a preset value, or time triggered breaths will be delivered at the backup breath rate
  3. designed to maintain a preset target alveolar ventilation by monitoring delivered ventilation, adjusting the pressure support and providing an intelligent backup breath automatically. Patients > 30 kg (pressure changes to augment tidal volume)
