B.5.1.1 Advantages
Working in the APV modes offer these benefits:
• Through the automatic regulation of the inspiratory pres-
sure and flow, the set target volume is achieved with the
lowest pressure possible depending on the lung charac-
teristics.
• During short-term post-operative ventilation, the delivered
volume remains constant despite rapid changes in breath-
ing activity.
