Basic Physics of Mechanical Ventilation
With “Basic Assessment and Support in Intensive Care” by Gomersall et all as a foundation, I built using the humongous and canonical “Principles and Practice of Mechanical Ventilation” by Tobins et al – the 1442 page 2nd edition Inspiratory phase Initiation phase Plateau phase: the change from inspiration to expiration ...

A meta-analysis 14 comprising 14 studies concluded that triggered ventilation leads to a shorter duration of ventilation overall as well as a reduction in air leaks compared with mandatory conven-tional ventilation.
