applied. Choices are between the RA and LL leads, or alternatively between the RA and LA leads.
4.3.2.5 Inspiration/Expiration Ratio
The
Inspiration/Expiration Ratio (I:E) defines a relationship between inspiration (inhalation) time and
expiration (exhalation) time, which is an indicator of patient respiratory effort. It can be set to one
of the following options:
1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5, or Ventilated 1:1
