Infant female GA 36 weeks, Birthweight 2060 g, with moderate respiratory<br />

distress syndrome. Weaning process was per<strong>for</strong>med by use of PSV mode and<br />

gradual reduction of the pressure support level only.<br />

Low FiO 2 and the Rate/Volume Ratio were stable during the whole weaning<br />

process. The baby was weaned off the ventilator with success at the end of<br />

this process. The duration of mechanical ventilation was 1 day. The figures<br />

show the trend of peak inspiratory pressure, FiO 2, RVR, tidal volume,<br />
