PRVC Flashcards
PRVC- Increase in PEEP
Increases PIP, and PLAT
No change in anything else
PRVC- Increase in Insp. Pressure (driving pressure)
Increases Vtinsp, Vtexp, Insp. flow, PIP, PLAT
No change in I-time, I:E
PRVC- Increase I-time, flow not reaching zero
Increases Vtinsp, Vtexp, I:E, PLAT
No change in flow, PIP
PRVC- Decrease in compliance
Decreases Vtinsp, Vtexp,
No change in anything else
PRVC- Increase in Raw, flow not reaching zero
Decreases Vtinsp, Vtexp, Insp. flow, PLAT
No change in I-time, I:E, PIP
PRVC-Air trapping
Decreases Vtinsp, Vtexp
Will then increase pressure to increase Vt to set
PRVC- Air Leak
Increases Vtinsp, Insp. flow
Decreases PLAT if Vtexh decreases
PRVC- Increase in patient effort
Increases Vtinsp, Vtexh, Insp. flow
Then after several breaths will decrease the pressure
PRVC- Pt increases the RR
Only I:E increases, Exp time decreases.
PRVC- RRT increase the RR, flow not reaching zero
Decreases Vtinsp, Vtexh, I-time (if I:E set), PLAT
Pressure will increase after several breaths
PRVC
Trigger, Limit, Cycle
Trigger- Patient (pressure, flow), Time, Manual
Limit- Volume target, pressure limit
Cycle- Time
