This episode covers Assist Control, but also talks about CMV and PCV. I discuss how AC can be set using pressure or volume control settings and how the breaths look in this mode. Finally, I cover indications and hazards of using AC. For more information and practice go to www.myvresp.com You can also find RT Study Hall on Facebook and Youtube.

In this episode we’re going to focus on breath types in traditional modes of ventilation - PC breaths, VC breaths, and Spontaneous Breaths/PS breaths and then we'll also talk about Mandatory, Assisted, and truly Spontaneous breaths. We're going to cover these breaths in relation to triggers, limiting, and cycling mechanisms but if you want more in-depth coverage of what these things are, check out the YouTube links below: Triggering Mechanisms Limiting Mechanisms Cycling Mechanisms For more interactive information and practice, go www.myresp.com where you'll find a Mechanical Ventilation Study Course. You can also find VRESP on Facebook and Instagram and RT Study Hall is also a study group on Facebook.

This is a longer one, but I'm covering compliance and resistance, the equations, the causes of increased and decreased compliance and Raw, and how to identify the change that is happening.
