7 Description of the modes
The PCV mode is used for mandatory pressure-controlled
ventilation with fixed pressure levels with a fixed set ventilation
rate. This mode is used on patients who have no spontaneous
breathing. However, a spontaneously breathing patient can
breathe deeply and freely during expiration. The set maximum
ventilation pressure (pMax) ensures the safety of the patient.
