A ventilator mode can be thought of as a classification based on how to control the ventilator breath.
Traditionally ventilators were classified based on how they determined when to stop giving a breath.

Modes

3. Core Concepts:
What is a ventilator Mode?

4. •A ventilator mode can be thought of as a
classification based on how to control the
ventilator breath.
•Traditionally ventilators were classified based on
how they determined when to stop giving a
breath.

5. Basic Terminology
•Trigger-
–variable which initiates inspiration
•Limit:
–variable which limits the volume of inspiratorygas
•Cycle:
–Variable which determines cycling of inspiration to
expiration
•Remember “TLC”

6. •All ventilatorymodes can be described using 4
phase variables:
–Time
–Pressure
–Flow
–Volume

7. Ventilator classifications
•Positive and negative pressure ventilators
•Pressure and flow generators
•Hand controlled ventilators
–Manual self inflatable resuscitator bag
–Continuous flow anaesthesiabag
•Mechanical ventilators
–Gas powered
–Electric powered
–combined

8. Basic ventilator modes
•Control mode ventilation
•Assist mode ventilation
•Assist/control mode ventilation
•Intermittent mandatory ventilation
•Pressure support ventilation
•PEEP
•CPAP
•Mandatory minute ventilation (MMV)

9. Advanced Ventilation modes
•High frequency ventilation
•Airway pressure release ventilation
•Inverse ratio ventilation
•Continuous flow apneicventilation
•Differential lung ventilation
•Proportional assist ventilation
•Neurallyadjusted ventilatoryassist (NAVA)
•Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

•Clinical indications

11. Control Mode Ventilation
•Basic mode-volume preset, patient does not
participate in any phase of the ventilation cycle.
•Time triggered, volume limited, time/volume
cycled.
•Full support mode–hence advantageous in
critically ill patients who require a guaranteed
minute ventilation
•Reduces respiratory WOB and minimizes
oxygen consumption of respiratory muscles

12. •Used in
–After 1
st
intubation, prior to full evaluation
–Patients who require high minute ventilation
–Patients with unstable respiratory drives
–Patients with respiratory muscle fatigue
–Patients with poor cardiac output to reduce oxygen
consumption of resp. muscles
•Two modes–volume cycled, pressure cycled
Control Mode Ventilation

13. •Problems
–Dysphoricto the patient as he cannot participate in
the ventilatoryprocess. Requires sedation and
paralysis resulting in intentional overventilation,
alkalosis, apnea during disconnection
–This mode is unresponsive to patient’s changing
minute ventilation demands. Requires intensive
monitoring
–makes respiratory muscles prone to atrophy.

16. Assist Mode Ventilation
•Basic mode, patient participates only during triggering
machine breath.
•Pressure/flow triggered, volume/pressure limited,
volume/time cycled.
•Patients participate in process of breathing but do not
contribute to WOB-better tolerated than CMV
•May result in apnea if patient is unable to trigger a
breath
•Not used in ITUs anymore, but is conventional in Ors.

18. Pressure Control ventilation
•Basic Mode, independent of patient effort.
•Time triggered, pressure limited, time cycled.
•Since it is time cycled, allows for any I:E setting.
Suitable for IRV.
•Less chance of barotraumabecause PIP is
preset.
•Does not guarantee delivery of fixed tidal
volume.

20. Assist/Control Mode ventilation
•Basic mode. Bimodal form of ventilation where
ventilator works in assist mode when patient’s rate is
higher than preset ‘backup’ rate and goes into control
mode when trigger falls below it.
•Time/pressure triggered, volume/pressure limited,
volume/time cycled.
•Patients can adjust their ventilatoryneeds provided they
have an intact respiratory drive and muscle strength
•‘Backup rate’ is a safety feature. Should be set at 80 %
of initial patient rate/ minute ventilation

21. •‘Backup rate’ should be set above respiratory
rate if
–Patient’s drive is unstable
–Tight control of pH or PaCO2 is required
–In patients with flail chest
•Respiratory muscles continue to consume
oxygen and contribute to WOB
Assist/Control Mode ventilation

22. •Problems
–Patients respiratory rate increases mean intrathoracic
pressures which in turn decreases cardiac output. An
assist rate above 16 is associated with AutoPEEP
–Results in more barotraumaassociated lung injury
–May produce alkalemiain patients with high
respiratory drives

24. Synchronous Intermittent Mandatory
Ventilation (SIMV)
•Basic Mode. Allows spontaneous ventilations through a
continuous flow device. Machine breaths are delivered
at preset time intervals. Machine breaths are
synchronized with patient’s efforts.
•Time/pressure triggered, Volume/pressure limited,
volume/time cycled + spontaneous ventilation
•Total support, full support and partial support can be
provided.
•Usually used along with PSV to support spontaneous
breaths.

25. •Weaning is a controlled and gradual process
•Advantages:
–Avoidance of respiratory alkalosis
–Decreased requirement of sedation/paralysis. Better
tolerated
–Lower mean airway pressures
–Better ventilation and perfusion matching
–Expedited weaning
–Prevention of resp. muscle atrophy
Synchronous Intermittent Mandatory
Ventilation (SIMV)

26. •Problems
–Increased risk of CO2 retention
–Increased WOB
–Respiratory muscle fatigue
–Prolongation of weaning
–Chances of cardiac decompensation
