Sets the pressure difference
between Pinsp and PEEP with
which pressure-controlled ventila-
tion is carried out.
If PEEP max or Pinsp max is
reached in the course of the
maneuver, the pressure difference
will be reduced in steps until the
other set value is also reached.
The smallest possible value must
be at least 3 above the set value
for the pressure rise for each level.
