Definitions
• Tidal Volume (TV): volume of each breath.
• Rate: breaths per minute.
• Minute Ventilation (MV): total ventilation per minute. MV = TV x Rate.
• Flow: volume of gas per time.
Definitions
• Compliance:The distensibility of a system. The
higher the compliance, the easier it is to inflate the lungs.
• Resistance:Impediment to airflow.
Definitions
SIMV
Patient breathes spontaneously between ventilator breaths.
• Allows patient-ventilator synchrony
• Making for a more comfortable experience.
Definitions
• PIP: maximum pressure measured by the ventilator during inspiration.
• PEEP: pressure present in the airways at the end of expiration.
• CPAP: amount of pressure applied to the airway during all phases of the respiratory cycle.
Definitions
• PS: amount of pressure applied to the airway during spontaneous inspiration by the patient.
• I-time: amount of time delegated to inspiration.
Types of Ventilation
• Volume Control
• Pressure Control
• Pressure Support-CPAP
• Pressure-Regulated Volume Control
Volume Control
• The patient is given a specific volume of air during inspiration.
• The ventilator uses a set flow for a set period of time to deliver the volume:
• TV (cc) = Flow (cc/sec) x i-time (sec)
Volume Control
• The PIP observed is a product of :
• lung compliance, airway resistance and flow rate.
• The ventilator does not react to the PIP unless the alarm limits are violated.
Volume Control
• The PIP tends to be higherthan during pressure controlventilation to deliver the same volume of air.
Volume Control
• With SIMV, the patient can breath spontaneously between vent breaths.
• This mode is often combined with
PS.
Pressure Control
• Patient receives a breath at a fixed airway pressure.
• The ventilator adjusts the flow to maintain the pressure.
• Flow decreases throughout the inspiratory cycle.
Pressure Control
• The pressure is constantthroughout inspiration.
• Volume delivered depends upon the inspiratory pressure, I-time, pulmonary compliance and airway resistance.
Pressure Control
• The delivered volume can vary from breath-to-breath depending upon the
above factors. MV not assured.• Good mode to use if patient has large
air leak, because the ventilator will increase the flow to compensate it.
CPAP-Pressure Support
•No mandatory breaths• Patient sets the rate, I-time, and
respiratory effort.
• CPAP performs the same function as PEEP, except that it is constant throughout the inspiratory and expiratory cycle.
CPAP-Pressure Support
• Pressure Support (PS) helps to
overcome airway resistance and inadequate pulmonary effort and is
added on top of the CPAP
during inspiration.
CPAP-Pressure Support
• The ventilator increases the flow during inspiration to reach the target pressure and make it easier
for the patient to take a breath.
Pressure-Regulated Volume Control
• In this mode, a target minute ventilation is set.
• The ventilator will adjust the flow to deliver the volume without exceeding a
target inspiratory pressure.
•Decelerating flow pattern.
Pressure-Regulated Volume Control
•No change in minute ventilation if pulmonary
conditions change.
• Can ventilate at a lower PIP than in regular volume control.
Pressure-Regulated Volume Control
•Hard to use on a spontaneously breathing
patient or one with a large air leak.
•Not a “weaning” mode.
Initial Ventilator Settings
•Rate:•20-24 for infants and
preschoolers
•16-20 for grade school kids
•12-16 for adolescents
Initial Ventilator Settings
• TV: 10-15ml/kg
• PEEP: 3-5cm H2O
• FiO2: 100%
• I-time: 0.7 sec for higher rates, 1sec for lower rates
pCO2 Too High
• Patient’s minute ventilation is too low.
• Increase rate or TV or both.
• If using PC ventilation, increase PIP.
• If PIP too high, increase the rate instead.
pCO2 Too High
• If air-trapping is occurring, decrease the rate and the I-time and increase the TV to allow complete exhalation.
• Sometimes, you have to live with the high pCO2, so use THAM or bicarbonate to increase the pH to >7.20.
pCO2 Too Low
• Minute ventilation is too high.
• Lower either the rate or TV.
• Don’t need to lower the TV if the PIP is <20.
• PIP <24 is fine unless delivered TV is still >15ml/kg.
pCO2 Too Low
• TV needs to be 8ml/kg or higher to prevent progressive atelectasis
• If patient is spontaneously breathing, consider lowering the pressure support if spontaneous TV >7ml/kg.
pO2 Too High
• Decrease the FiO2.
• When FiO2 is less than 40%, decrease the PEEP to 3-5 cm H2O.
• Wean the PEEP no faster than about 1 every 8-12 hours.
pO2 Too High
• While patient is on ventilator,
don’t wean FiO2 to <25%
to give the patient a margin of safety in case the ventilator quits.
pO2 Too Low
• Increase either the FiO2 or the mean
airway pressure (MAP).• Try to avoid FiO2 >70%.• Increasing the PEEP is the most efficient
way of increasing the MAP in the PICU.
• Can also increase the I-time to increase the MAP (PC).
pO2 Too Low
• Can increase the PIP in Pressure Control to increase the MAP,
but this generally doesn’t add much at rates <30 bpm.
PIP Too High
• Decrease the PIP (PC) or the TV (VC).
• Increase the I-time (VC).• Change to another mode of
ventilation. Generally, pressure control achieves
the same TV at a lower PIP than volume control.
PIP Too High
• If the high PIP is due to high airway resistance, generally the lung is protected from
barotrauma unless air-trapping occurs.
Weaning Priorities
• Wean PIP to <35cm H2O
• Wean FiO2 to <60%
• Wean I-time to <50%
• Wean PEEP to <8cm H2O
• Wean FiO2 to <40%
Weaning Priorities
• Wean PEEP, PIP, I-time, and rate towards extubation settings.
•Can consider changing to volume control ventilation when PIP <35cm H2O.

of work of breathing.
