The VAC is a volume controlled ventilation (Vt), synchronized with the patient
breaths if the inspiratory trigger is active (Trigger).
This type of ventilation, being completely made by the device, is used when the
patient is not able to breathe autonomously, or, to assure an effective pre-set tidal
volume, it is necessary to ventilate the patient in a fully mechanical way.
