2) Prophylactic Ventilatory Support
 Clinical conditions in which there is a high risk of future respiratory failure
 Examples: Brain injury, heart muscle injury, major surgery, prolonged shock,
smoke injury
 Ventilatory support is instituted to:

 Reduce cardiopulmonary stress
 Control airway with sedation
3) Hyperventilation Therapy
 Ventilatory support is instituted to control and manipulate PaCO2 to lower
than normal levels

Criteria for institution of ventilatory
support
 Pulmonary function studies:
 Respiratory rate (breaths/min) > 35
 Tidal volume (ml/kg) <5
 Vital capacity (ml/kg) <15
 Maximum Inspiratory Force (cm HO2) <-20
 ABGS

Basic Ventilator Parameters
 Mode – The way machine ventilates the patient.
 Tidal volume
 Frequency
 FiO2
 PI & Plateau Pressure
 PEEP
 Inspiratory Time
 Expiratory time
 I:E Ratio
Phase Variables
 Trigger - What causes the breath to begin (signal to open the inspiratory
valve)
 Machine (controlled): the ventilator will trigger regular breaths at a frequency
which will depend on the set respiratory rate, ie, they will be ventilator time
triggered.
 Patient (assisted): If the patient does make an effort to breathe and the ventilator
can sense it (by either sensing a negative inspiratory pressure or an inspiratory
flow) and deliver a breath, it will be called a patient- triggered breath.
 Limit- Factor which controls the inspiration inflow ,places a maximum value
on a control variable
 Flow Limited: a fixed flow rate and pattern is set and maintained throughout
inspiration- An adequate tidal volume.
 Pressure will be variable (comp and resistance dependent)
 Pressure limited: the pressure is not allowed to go above a preset limit.
 The tidal volume will be variable (comp and resistance dependent)
 Cycling - Signal that stops the inspiration and starts the expiration.

MODES OF VENTILATION
1) Controlled Mechanical Ventilation
2) Assist Control Ventilation
3) Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation
4) Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory
Ventilation
5) Pressure Support
6) Combination
1) Volume targeted ventilation (flow controlled,
volume cycled)
1) CMV
2) AC
3) IMV
4) SIMV
2) Pressure targeted ventilation
1) PCV (pressure controlled, time cycled)
2) SIMV
3) PS
4) CPAP & BIPAP
3) Combination modes
1) SIMV with PS and either volume or pressure-
targeted mandatory cycles
Controlled mandatory ventilation (CMV)
 The ventilator delivers
 Preset tidal volume (or pressure) at a time triggered (preset) respiratory rate.
 As the ventilator controls both tidal volume (pressure) and respiratory rate, the
ventilator “controls” the patients minute volume.
 Patient can not breath spontaneously
 Patient can not change the ventilator respiratory rate
 Suitable only when patient has no breathing efforts -Disease or Under heavy
sedation and muscle relaxants
 DISADVANTAGES
 Asynchrony and increased work of breathing.
 Not suitable for patient who is awake or has own respiratory efforts
 Can not be used during weaning
Assist Control Ventilation
 Mandatory breaths: Ventilator delivers preset volume/Pressure and preset
flow rate at a set back-up rate
 Spontaneous breaths: Additional cycles can be triggered by the patient but
otherwise are identical to the mandatory breath.
 Tidal volume (VT) of each delivered breath is the same, whether it is assisted
breath or controlled breath
 Minimum breath rate is guaranteed (controlled breaths with set VT)
 Asynchrony taken care of to some extent
 Low work of breathing, as every breath is supported and tidal volume is
guaranteed.
 DISADVANTAGES :Hyperventilation Respiratory alkalosis Breath stacking
Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation
(IMV)
 Machine breaths are delivered at a set rate (volume or pressure limit)
 Patient is allowed to breath spontaneously from either a demand valve or a
continuous flow of gases but not offering any inspiratory assistance.
 Patient’s capability determines Tidal volume of spontaneously breaths
 Pros: Freedom for natural spontaneous breaths even on machine Lesser
chances of hyperventilation
 Cons: Asynchrony Random chance of breath stacking. Increase work of
breathing Random high airway pressure (barotrauma) and lung volume
(volutrauma) Setting appropriate pressure limit is important to reduce the
risk of barotrauma
Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory
Ventilation
 3 types of breathing:
1) Patient initiated assisted ventilation
If the patient makes a spontaneous inspiratory effort that falls in sync window,
the ventilator is patient triggered to deliver an assisted breath and will count it
as mandatory breath
2) Ventilator generated controlled ventilation
if patient does not make an inspiratory effort then ventilator will deliver a time
triggered mandatory breath. Time triggered mandatory breath
3) Unassisted spontaneous breath.
If the patient breathes between mandatory breaths, the ventilator will allow the
patient to breathe a normal breath by opening the demand (inspiratory) valve but
not offering any inspiratory assistance.
Pressure Support Ventilation
 Pressure (or Pressure above PEEP) is the setting variable
 No mandatory breaths , Applicable on Spontaneous breaths: a preset pressure
assist,
 Flow cycling: terminates when flow drops to a specified fraction (typically
25%) of its maximum.
 Patient effort determines size of breath and flow rate.
 It augments spontaneous VT decreases spontaneous rates and WOB
 Used in conjunction with spontaneous breaths in any mode of ventilation.
 No back up ventilation in the event of apnea.
 Provides pressure support to overcome the increased work of breathing
imposed by the disease process, the endotracheal tube, the inspiratory valves
and other mechanical aspects of ventilatory support
 Allows for titration of patient effort during weaning.
 Helpful in assessing extubation readiness.
PRESSURE REGULATED VOLUME CONTROL
(PRVC)
 This is a volume targeted, pressure limited mode. (available in SIMV or AC)
 Each breath is delivered at a set volume with a variable flow rate and an absolute pressure
limit.
 The vent delivers this pre-set volume at the LOWEST required peak pressure and adjust with
each breath.
 Ventilator monitors each breath and compares the delivered tidal volume with set tidal
volume. If tidal volume is too low it increases the inspiratory pressure on next breath, if it is
too high it decreases the pressure.
 Advantages
 Decelerating inspiratory flow pattern
 Pressure automatically adjusted for changes in compliance and resistance within a set range
 Tidal volume guaranteed
 Limits volutrauma
 Prevents hypoventilation
INITIAL SETTINGS
1) Select your mode of ventilation
2) Set sensitivity at Flow trigger mode
a) Pressure triggering , a ventilator-delivered breath is initiated if the demand
valve senses a negative airway pressure deflection (generated by the patient
trying to initiate a breath) greater than the trigger sensitivity.
b) Flow-by triggering , a continuous flow of gas through the ventilator circuit is
monitored. A ventilator-delivered breath is initiated when the return flow is less
than the delivered flow, a consequence of the patient's effort to initiate a breath
3) Set Tidal Volume - 5 – 7 ml/kg of IBW
4) Set Rate - 12-18 breaths/min
5) Set Inspiratory Flow (if necessary)
1) beginning point, flow is normal set to deliver inspiration in about 1 second (range
0.8 to 1.2 sec.), producing an I:E ratio of approximately 1:2 or less (usually about
1:4) – This can be achieved with an initial peak flow of about 60 L/min (range of
40 to 80 L/min)
5) Set Inspiratory Flow (if necessary)
At beginning point, flow is normal set to deliver inspiration in about 1 second (range 0.8
to 1.2 sec.), producing an I:E ratio of 1:2 or less – With an initial peak flow of about 60
L/min (range of 40 to 80 L/min)
6) Set PEEP
 Initially set at 3 – 5 cm H2O –
 Restores FRC and physiological PEEP that existed prior to intubation
 Useful to treat refractory hypoxemia
 Contraindications for therapeutic PEEP (>5 cm H2O) – Hypotension – Elevated ICP –
Uncontrolled pneumothorax
7) Set Pressure Limit
8) Inspiratory time
9) Fraction of inspired oxygen
 Initially 100% – Severe hypoxemia – Abnormal cardiopulmonary functions 1)Post-
resuscitation 2) Smoke inhalation 3)ARDS
 After stabilization, attempt to keep FiO2 <50% – Avoids oxygen-induced lung injuries
1)Absorption atelectasis 2) Oxygen toxicity
Post Initial Settings
 Obtain an ABG (arterial blood gas) about 30 minutes after you set your patient
up on the ventilator.
 An ABG will give you information about any changes that may need to be
made to keep the patient’s oxygenation and ventilation status within a
physiological range.
 Goal:
 pH 7.35 – 7.45
 PCO2 35-45 mmHg
 PO2 80-100 mmHg
Problems Associated with PPV
 Heart and circulation
 Reduced venous return and pre load
 Hypotension and reduced cardiac output
 LUNGS
 Barotrauma
 Ventilator-induced lung injury
 Air trapping
 May increase dead space (compression of capillaries)
 Shunt (e.g., unilateral lung disease - the increase in vascular resistance in the
normal lung associated with PPV tends to redirect blood flow in the abnormal
lung)
NON INVASIVE VENTILATION
 “The delivery of mechanical ventilation to the lungs using techniques
that do not require endotracheal intubation”
 NPPV is delivered by a face mask, therefore eliminating the need
for intubation or tracheostomy.

MODES OF VENTILATION
There are three basic modes of ventilation available for NIV:
1) Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
In hypoxemic respiratory failure
2) Bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP)
In hypercapneic respiratory failure
3) Pressure Support Ventilation
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
 Constant positive airway pressure of 5-10cmH2O throughout cycle
 Improves oxygenation
 Increases FRC and opens collapsed alveoli
 Decreases work of breathing by alveolar recruitment (Dec elastic work) and
unloads inspiratory muscles
 Decreases hypoxia by alveolar recruitment and reduces intrapulmonary shun
INDICATIONS
 Acute pulmonary oedema
 Pneumonia
 Obstructive sleep apnea
Bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP)
 Combination of IPAP and EPAP
 EPAP
 Provides PEEP
 Increases Functional Residual Capacity
 Reduces FiO2 required to optimise SaO2
 IPAP
 Decreases work of breathing + oxygen demand
 Increases spontaneous tidal volume
 Decreases spontaneous respiratory rate
INDICATIONS FOR BiPAP
 Acute Respiratory Failure Type II with chest wall deformity or NM disease
 Exacerbation of COPD with respiratory acidosis
 Asthma
 Failure of CPAP
 Pneumonia with respiratory acidosis
PRESSURE SUPPORT VENTILATION
 Patient triggered inspirations.
 Pressure augmented tidal volumes.
 Uses decelerating inspiratory flow rate, with high flow rates early in
inspiration.
 Pressure augmented breath is terminated when inspiratory flow rate falls to
25% of peak level
 It allows the patient to determine duration of lung inflation and tidal volume
CLINICAL USE OF PSV
 Weaning from mechanical ventilation
 To overcome resistance in artificial airways and tubing.
 Reduce the work of breathing without augmenting tidal volume.
 Low levels of PS (5-10 cmH2O) used.
 As a form of NIV, to augment tidal volume
 Higher levels of PSV (15-35 cmH2O) used
MECHANISM OF ACTION OF NIPPV
 Improvement in pulmonary mechanics and oxygenation: NPPV augments
alveolar ventilation and allows oxygenation without raising PaCO2 .
 It reduces respiratory muscles work and diaphragmatic electromyographic
activity.
 ↑ Tidal volume, ↓ RR and ↑ MV .
 PEEP decreases the work of breathing by partially overcoming the auto-PEEP.
 Resetting of respiratory center ventilatory responses to PaCO2
 By maintaining lower nocturnal PaCO2 during sleep by giving NPPV, it is possible to
reset the respiratory control center to become more responsive to an increased
PaCO2 by increasing the neural output to diaphragm and other respiratory muscles.
