The mode for the PRVC breath type is PRVC Assist Control (A/C) mode.*
All breaths are mandatory breaths. A breath can be triggered by the detection of a
patient eort, the breath interval timing out or the MANUAL BREATH key being activated.
The initiation of a breath resets the breath interval. A patient may initiate all breaths.
Without patient eort, breaths deliver at the set breath rate. During mandatory breaths,
the demand system can provide additional flow if needed.
