The following section describes the different breathing patterns available in the QuickLung Breather, together with the respective ranges of breath rate, I:E-ratio, flow rate, and the maximum spontaneous tidal volume possible. Vt indicated in this context is representative only for applications where no PEEP is present that would require the Offset to be adjusted, diminishing the maximum available tidal volume. Generally, high Resistance settings and small Compliance settings limit the range of flow and volume. R = 5 cm H2O R = 20 cm H2O R = 50 cm H2O C = 50 ml/cm H2O C = 20 ml/cm H2O C = 10...

“Kussmaul breathing is a deep and labored breathing pattern often associated with severe metabolic acidosis, particularly diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) but also kidney failure. It is a form of hyperventilation, which is any breathing pattern that reduces carbon dioxide in the blood due to increased rate or depth of respiration.” [3] The range of parameters that are available is depicted in the table below: EUPNEA Rate [BPM] Volume [ml] I:E ratio [%] MV [L] Insp. Hold [%] 6.6 Using the Apnea Feature You can control how apnea enters into the breathing patterns of your simulated patient by selecting...
