BIPAPAssist
Biphasic Positive Airway Pressure
Assisted*
Pressure-controlled, assisted ventilation
The inspiratory strokes are the same as
for BIPAP, but the changeover from Pinsp
to PEEP is not synchronised with expiration
by the patient. The patient can
breathe spontaneously at PEEP level
through the entire ventilation process.
Every spontaneous breathing activity by
the patient triggers a synchronised
inspiratory stroke.
A non-synchronised inspiratory stroke is
started by the device at the latest upon
expiry of the time »f«.
Set ventilation pattern for BIPAPAssist
with the following parameters:
Inspiratory pressure »Pinsp«
Frequency »f«
Inspiration time »Tinsp«
O2 concentration »O2«
Positive end-expiratory pressure »PEEP«
Pressure rise time »Ramp«
Flowtrigger »Flowtrig.«
The inspiratory pressure »Pinsp« is set as
an absolute value.
