When using the S-IPPV mode, the CO
2
concentration in the
patient's blood can drop and injure the patient.
Monitor the patient continuously.
Risk of air trapping!
When using the S-IPPV mode, air can become trapped in the
patient's lung. This results in a reduced gas exchange and can
injure the patient.
Monitor the airway pressure continuously.
Risk of intrinsic PEEP!
An expiration that is too short can cause the pressure to increase
slowly at the end of the expiration and injure the patient.
Set the pressure limitation correctly.
Monitor the patient continuously.
