Throughout the study period, all patients received pressure assist-control ventilation using the same ICU ventilator (PB840 or PB980) (Covidien, Mansfield, Massachusetts). The inspiratory pressure was set to obtain a tidal volume of 6–8 mL/kg ideal body weight. Parameters such as positive end-expiratory pressure, fraction of inspired oxygen, respiratory frequency, inspiratory time and flow trigger sensitivity were adjusted by bedside physicians. Other patient management strategies were performed by the bedside physicians and nurses according to the critical care guidelines and the analgesia-sedation protocol of our institution.
Pb840
The PB840 is a ventilator device designed for use in a hospital setting. It is capable of providing mechanical ventilation support to patients who require assistance with breathing. The PB840 is intended to aid in the management of respiratory distress or failure, but its detailed functionality and intended use should be further evaluated by medical professionals.

Measuring Ventilator-Assisted Exercise Physiology
Example of a patient ventilated with Neurally Adjusted Ventilator Assist (NAVA) while performing exercise with the cycle ergometer (MOTOmed Letto 2, RECK-Technik GmbH and Co. Betzenweiler, Germany). Oxygen consumption is measured through indirect calorimetry

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
