ASV adjusts respiratory rate, tidal volume, and inspiratory time continuously depending on the patient’s lung mechanics and effort. ASV adapts ventilation breath-by-breath, 24 hours a day, and from intubation to extubation.
When do we use ASV?
ASV ensures optimal ventilation for each patient during passive ventilation, spontaneous breathing, and weaning. In passive patients, ASV is a volume-targeted pressure controlled mode with automatic adjustment of inspiratory pressure, respiratory rate, and inspiratory/expiratory time ratio.
What is pressure support on ASV?
The ASV device changes the inspiratory pressure above the expiratory pressure as required to normalize patients’ ventilation. Pressure support may be set to a minimum of 0 and maximum pressure minus the EPAP (the MaxPS should equal MaxPressure – MinEPAP).
