Triggering Inspiratory time I:E ratios
Triggering Flow or pressure change Inspiratory time I:E ratio
Triggering Inspiratory time Default 1.7 seconds Often reduced (1.2 seconds more comfortable) I:E ratio
Triggering Inspiratory time I:E ratio Usually ~1:3 When adjusting inspiratory time check I:E ratio Check not accidently ventilating with inspiratory time longer than expiratory time Disease-specific
