Background: PSV is a patient triggered, pressure limited, flow cycled mode of ventilation. Synchrony during inspiration and expiration, and flow dynamics of PSV might facilitate weaning from ...
Before the invention of the polio vaccine, the iron lung supported patients whose lungs were weakened or paralyzed by polio.
In PARDS, bilevel ventilation that provides an increased level of support during inspiration will provide a superior level of support than continuous positive pressure alone. Sedation may be ...
