Figure 8-24: Ventilation Control Buttons (PCV settings selected)

2.The setting screen for the selected breath type appears. All of the settings are grayed out, indicating that they are not currently active. However, you can use the grayed out buttons to change the settings as

necessary, (with the exception of Set O2 and patient type, which can be changed only in the active mode).

For example, if you press PCV SETTINGS when the current breath type is NPPV, all the PCV settings are grayed out (Figure 8-25)because NPPV is currently active.
