Abstrakt: The article discusses the systematic recognition of patient-ventilator asynchrony and use of breath types, modes, and other ventilator parameters to optimize the patient-ventilator synchronization. Topics covered include ways that a machine breath can be initiated by the ventilator, two types of patient-trigging systems available on most ventilators, and flow limitations of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
