Therapy Mode Table
The following table summarizes all of the therapy modes and the settings available in each mode. Some settings in the table
are dependent upon other settings. For instance, if the circuit type is set to Active with Flow, then the Flow Trigger Sensitivity,
Leak Compensation, and Flow Cycle settings will display.
Note: Pressure Support, referred to in the table below and later in this manual, is dened as IPAP - EPAP or Pressure -
PEEP (PC-SIMV).

* Trigger Type, AVAPS, and Flex settings are only available with the Passive circuit type. High Vte and Low Vte settings are only
available for Passive and Active Flow circuit types. High Vti and Low Vti settings are only available with the Active PAP circuit
type. Leak compensation is only available with the Active Flow circuit type.
