Advanced Modes of CMV
RC 270
Pressure Support = mode that
supports spontaneous
breathing
A preset pressure is applied to the
airway with each spontaneous
inspiration
Pressure Support
Pure assist mode
Patient determines rate, Vt, and
inspiratory time
Inspiration is flow cycled
Most
ventilators flow cycle a pressure
support breath when inspiratory flow drops
to 25% of the peak flow for that inspiration
PB 7200 flow cycles when pressure support
flow drops to 5-10 lpm
Indications/Advantages:
Pressure Support
Initially used to overcome the increased
W.O.B. when breathing spontaneously
through an E-T tube
Also may be used during spontaneous
breaths during IMV
Weaning
Assisted ventilation (instead of A/C)
PSVmax
Initial Settings and
Adjustments: Pressure
Support
To overcome resistance of E-T tube,
start at 5-10 cmH2O
For PSVMax, set pressure to level that
gives an exhaled Vt of 10-12 ml/kg
Advantages: Pressure
Support
Supports spontaneous breathing with
decreased W.O.B.(with or without an ET tube)
Can be done with a face mask
Usually less barotrauma and
hemodynamic compromise
Patients like it!
Disadvantage: Pressure
Support
A leak in the system prevents flow
cycling
Will
cause a CPAP effect
Pressure Controlled
Ventilation (PCV)
A set pressure is applied to the
airway during inspiration and the
breath time cycles
Pressure Controlled
Ventilation
Can be used in A/C or control
Flow tapers – if it drops to zero before
time cycling occurs, the pressure
plateaus
Besides pressure, RCP also sets rate
and either inspiratory time or I:E ratio
Vt may vary from breath to breath
Pressure Controlled
Ventilation
Indications are same as for any type of CMV:
Apnea
Acute ventilatory failure
Impending ventilatory failure
Acute respiratory failure (Oxygenation failure)
Often used when volume cycling (volume
control) is causing high airway pressures
Has been used to ventilate neonates since
the 60s
PCV: Initial Settings and
Adjustments
Initially choose a pressure (PIP) that gives
desired exhaled Vt
If switching from volume cycling (volume
control), use a PIP that is less than PIP
during volume cycling
Adjustment in rate, PIP, and I:E (or inspiratory
time based on ABGs, oximetry, and
capnography
A change in PIP or I:E/insp time will change Vt
PC-IRV: Pressure Control with
Inverse I:E Ratio
Control mode only
Patient is paralyzed
Settings like PCV except for
inverse I:E (gives long insp time)
PC-IRV used in diseases with
high elastic resistance, eg
ARDS
Prolonged insp time helps O2
To increase PaO2: increase rate,
PIP or insp time
To decrease PaCO2: decrease
rate or PIP
Airway Pressure Release
Ventilation (APRV)
Alternating levels of CPAP in a
spontaneously breathing patient
APRV
Like PC-IRV but patient is breathing
spontaneously and is not paralyzed
Also used for high elastic resistance
High CPAP level is applied longer than
low CPAP level
Is
NOT synchronized with inspiration and
expiration
APRV: Settings and
Adjustments
Low CPAP usually between 2-10
cmH2O
High CPAP usually between 10-30
cmH2O
RCP also sets the time for each CPAP
level
Low
CPAP is usually only for 1-2 seconds
Bilevel Positive Airway
Pressure (BIPAP)
IPAP + EPAP
Differs from APRV – IPAP only
during inspiration, EPAP only
during expiration
Rate and I:E ratio can also be set
Indications : BIPAP
Sleep apnea
Ventilatory Assist without intubation
Can
be done via face mask
Often used to keep COPDers from being
tubed and put on A/C
Popular mode for NIPPV (Non-invasive
Positive Pressure Ventilation)
High Frequency Ventilation
(HFV)
A form of ventilation utilizing high
rates and small Vt that seems to
enhance diffusion of gases into
and out of the lung
History of CMV
HFV should not work based on
classical respiratory physiology!
HFV: High Frequency Jet
Ventilation (HFJV)
Vt usually 20-150 ml
Frequency (rate) 60-400 breaths per
minute
Usually a catheter is inserted via ET
tube or transnasally to apply jet bursts
to airway
Adjust rate, driving pressure, and insp
time, and FIO2
HFV: High Frequency
Oscillation (HFO)
Vt between 5-50ml
Frequency between 400-3000
Frequency
expressed in Hertz (Hz)
10 Hz equals 600 breaths per minute
HFO Techniques
HFV (both HFJV and HFO)
Strict FIO2 and
humidification can
be variable
Both appear to
cause diffusion to
occur from proximal
airway to alveoli
How does
spontaneous
breathing work?
Coaxial flow
Inspiration and
expiration may be
occurring
simultaneously
HFV seems to
stimulate
mucociliary
clearance
Enough
already!
