Pause
1
Inspiratory pause or plateau, as a per-
centage of total breath cycle time.
After the required gas is delivered (after
the operator-set Vt is reached), gas
remains in the lungs and exhalation is
blocked during the Pause time. The use
of a Pause increases the residence time
of gas in the patient’s lungs.
Applies to volume-controlled man-
datory breaths, when the device is
configured in this way.
