1. Pressure Control assures that the preset
inspiratory pressure level is kept constant
during the entire inspiration. Breaths are
delivered according to the preset
frequency, inspiration time and inspiratory
pressure level resulting in a decelerating
flow.
2. The preset pressure level is controlled by
the ventilator. The resulting volume
depends on the set pressure level,
inspiration time and the patient´s lung
mechanical properties during each breath
with a decelerating flow.
3. Inspiration starts according to the preset
frequency or when the patient triggers.
Expiration starts:
• After the termination of preset inspiration
time
• If the upper pressure limit is exceeded.
