Application of Volume Adaptive Modes in Ventilator Settings
This chapter delves into the utilization of volume adaptive modes in ventilator settings for a range of patients, including heavily sedated patients, chemically paralyzed sedated patients, and DKA patients with high flow demand. It emphasizes the need for individualized evaluation of patients rather than relying on default settings to optimize ventilation. The discussion also covers misconceptions around volume settings versus pressure-regulated volume control (PRVC) and highlights the importance of maintaining control over hypoxia, hypercarbia, and hypotension in patients like Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) patients.
