10 Description of the modes
S-IPPV mode is used for volume-controlled ventilation at a variable
mandatory minute volume. Throughout the entire expiratory
phase, a trigger is active which enables the patient to trigger a new
mechanical breath. This means the patient is able to increase his or
her respiratory rate – and thus minute volume – as needed. As a
rule, this mode is used on patients who have inadequate
spontaneous breathing. Ventilation can be individually adjusted to
match the patient with the aid of the inspiratory triggers.
Ventilation in S-IPPV mode corresponds to ventilation in IPPV
mode, with the difference that it is possible to synchronize with the
patient's own efforts to inhale. Since the setting for respiratory rate
is lower, the patient can trigger mandatory mechanical breaths
spontaneously. A trigger window extending throughout the
expiratory time is available for this synchronization.
