| 11. | When the cells stop firing, the inspiratory muscles relax, inspiration ceases, and exhalation begins.
|
| 12. | It is low-pitched, non-musical, and occurs during the inspiratory phase only.
|
| 13. | Unlike the inflation reflex, the afferents terminate on inspiratory centers rather than the pontine apneustic center.
|
| 14. | Each inspiratory effort that is beyond the sensitivity threshold delivers full pressures support for a fixed inspiratory time.
|
| 15. | Each inspiratory effort that is beyond the sensitivity threshold delivers full pressures support for a fixed inspiratory time.
|
| 16. | Further, the larger the patient's inspiratory flow rate, the greater the dilution from air.
|
| 17. | The theory is to ensure that the lowest inspiratory pressure necessary to achieve the desired tidal volume is used.
|
| 18. | In Pressure Support, the set inspiratory pressure support level is kept constant and there is a decelerating flow.
|
| 19. | This is because venturi masks are able to provide total inspiratory flow at a specified FiO 2 to patients therapy.
|
| 20. | In response, the inspiratory area is inhibited directly and the apneustic center is inhibited from activating the inspiratory area.
