the ventilator produces the flow needed to quickly reach the limiting pressure and maintain it during the programmed Ti&#46; The inspiratory flow waveform is &#8220;exponentially decreasing&#8221; &#40;wrongly called decelerated&#44;

This option is found on the parameters selection display as &#8220;Rise time&#8221;&#46; It should be mentioned that if we wish to pressurize the system more quickly&#44; the rise time must be shortened&#46; This maneuver is sometimes referred to as &#8220;increasing the rise time&#8221;&#44; which tends to produce confusion&#46; The angle or slope of the decrease in inspiratory flow will depend on the respiratory system impedance or resistance and on patient effort&#46; It should be noted that the flow is variable in its values but not in Ti&#44; which remains fixed&#46; Therefore&#44; P-CMV cycles by time&#44; and only some ventilators offer us the possibility of cycling by flow&#46;

The combination of excessive inspiratory efforts with high pressures can also generate a large Vt&#44; and this may give rise to lung injury&#46;</p><p id="par0230" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The main alarms during pressure-controlled ventilation are minimum Vt&#44; which alerts us of a worsening of impedance and the consequent hypoventilation&#46; The maximum Vt alarm in turn informs us of possible alveolar overdistension&#46; The low Vt and high FR alarms alert us of changes in the patient and the need for evaluation of the latter&#44; with adjustment of the parameters&#46; Likewise&#44; the alarms referred to Pmin and Pmax alert us of maintenance of the programmed pressure level&#46; As in the case of volume-controlled ventilation&#44; programming of the alarms should be adjusted according to the policies of each institution&#46;</p><p id="par0235" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">An important advantage of pressure-controlled ventilation is that the more normal areas of the lung can be protected from overdistension through limitation of the inspiratory pressure&#8211;though this is only relative&#44;

This has led to the development of dual ventilation modes designed to obtain a given Vt and at the same time limit the pressure&#46; These modes have been publicized as an innovation&#44; but in fact they offer clinicians the option of administering VCV with a descending ramp flow&#46;</p><p id="par0285" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Inadequate programming of inspiratory flow during VCV can impose great work of breathing &#40;WOB&#41; upon patients&#46; It is very important for the inspiratory flow of the ventilator to equal or at least come close to the flow demanded by the patient&#46; Since patient inspiratory demand can vary from breath to breath&#44; any predetermined inspiratory flow &#40;referred to both waveform and peak flow&#41; can substantially affect patient WOB&#46; During PCV the flow is decelerated and fundamentally variable&#59; thus&#44; if patient demand increases at any point during inspiration&#44; the measured pressure drops to below the programmed pressure&#44; and instructs the ventilator to increase flow with the purpose of maintaining the programmed pressure&#46; This autoregulatory nature of the inspiratory flow administered by the ventilator during PCV can offer advantages in patients with variable respiratory demands&#46;</p><p id="par0290" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another form of patient WOB which is sometimes overlooked refers to expiratory muscle activation&#46; Expiration should be passive even under mechanical ventilation&#46; Active expiration can be caused by inadequate programming of Ti and PEEP&#44; or by the use of an inspiratory pause&#46; The original PCV modes required the expiratory valve to be closed throughout Ti&#46; If the patient wished to cough or exhale&#44; the airway pressure increased to the maximum pressure alarm level&#44; thereby ending inspiration before completing the stipulated Ti&#46; The new ventilator designs incorporate a &#8220;floating valve&#8221; allowing the patient to exhale within Ti&#46; The pressure objective and programmed inspiratory pressure are maintained through manipulation of the inspiratory and expiratory valves&#46;</p><p id="par0295" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Improving the tolerance of mechanical ventilation through modes that control or limit pressure can contribute to lessen the need for sedation and neuromuscular blockers&#44;

This same study also recorded a decrease in the incidence of multiorgan failure over time&#46; Unfortunately&#44; failure in randomization of the study&#44; affecting the results of its multivariate analysis&#44;

both types of ventilation control offer some advantages fundamentally derived from improved control of the parameters in the volume-controlled modes and improved adaptability to the patient in the case of the pressure-controlled modes&#46; However&#44; the efficacy of the latter has not been demonstrated to date in clinical studies&#44; which on the other hand are difficult to carry out at the present time&#46; In any case&#44; the current recommendation possibly should be to use the ventilation mode that allows us to reach the objectives individually adapted to the clinical condition of the patient and to the existing lung mechanics in the most effective way possible&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0105"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">21&#8211;23</span></a> The mode of control of the parameters is not as important as their true control&#44;

any predetermined inspiratory flow &#40;referred to both waveform and peak flow&#41; can substantially affect patient WOB&#46; During PCV the flow is decelerated and fundamentally variable&#59; thus&#44; if patient demand increases at any point during inspiration&#44; the measured pressure drops to below the programmed pressure&#44; and instructs the ventilator to increase flow with the purpose of maintaining the programmed pressure&#46; This autoregulatory nature of the inspiratory flow administered by the ventilator during PCV can offer advantages in patients with variable respiratory demands&#46;</p><p id="par0290" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another form of patient WOB which is sometimes overlooked refers to expiratory muscle activation&#46; Expiration should be passive even under mechanical ventilation&#46; Active expiration can be caused by inadequate programming of Ti and PEEP&#44; or by the use of an inspiratory pause&#46; The original PCV modes required the expiratory valve to be closed throughout Ti&#46;

both types of ventilation control offer some advantages fundamentally derived from improved control of the parameters in the volume-controlled modes and improved adaptability to the patient in the case of the pressure-controlled modes&#46;
