inspiratory pressure
1Maximum inspiratory pressure — (MIP) is the value representing the highest level of negative pressure a person can generate on their own during an inhalation[1]. Represented by centimeters of water pressure (cmH2O) and measured with a manometer. MIP is an important and… …
2Pressure controlled intermittent mandatory ventilation — (PC IMV) is any mode of mechanical ventilation with preset inspiratory pressure (Pressure Control) and inspiratory time (Ti). Spontaneous breaths (i.e., inspiration is patient triggered and patient cycled) can exist between mandatory breaths… …
3Pressure Regulated Volume Control — (PRVC) is a ventilator mode where the breaths are delivered mandatorily to assure preset volumes, with a constant inspiratory pressure continuously adapting to the patient s condition. The flow pattern is decelerating. This mode is a form of… …
4maximum inspiratory pressure — (MIP) a measure of the strength of respiratory muscles, obtained by having the patient inhale as strongly as possible with the mouth against a mouthpiece; the maximum value is near the residual volume …
5maximum inspiratory pressure test — MIP test. A test that measures the strength of the muscles used in breathing. A person inhales and exhales through a device called a manometer, and the pressures are recorded by a computer. Also called MIP test …
6Positive airway pressure — A typical CPAP machine houses the air pump in a case lined with sound absorbing material for quieter operation. A hose carries the pressurized air to a face mask or nasal pillow …
7positive pressure — noun : pressure of a gas in excess of atmospheric pressure or of an arbitrary standard inspiratory positive pressures of 5 to 15 cm H2O were employed Journal American Medical Association …
