In this follow-up episode to Episode 3, we discuss and review the key factors (3 Ts) that define a mode of mechanical ventilation. In addition to the Targeted control variable (volume or pressure), the other key factors determining a mode include the Type of breath and Timing of breath delivery. In addition to discussing what defines a mode, we also review when and why one particular mode might be selected over another.
