Volume targeted ventilation initial frequency

8-12 breaths/min
Volume targeted ventilation initial VT tidal volume

4-12 ml/kg IBW

6-10 most often used
Volume targeted ventilation initial Ve (minute ventilation)

5-10 lpm

Check that f and Vt give sufficient Ve
Volume targeted ventilation initial Vi (inspiratory volume)
- 40-100 lpm
- 40-60 most commom
Volume targeted ventilation initial TI (inspiratory time)

0.8 - 1.2 sec
Volume targeted ventilation initial waveform
- Square
- Decel ramp
- Sine
Pressure targeted ventilation initial f

8-12 bpm
Pressure targeted ventilation initial PIP

~15 cmH2O
Pressure targeted ventilation initial TI (inspiratory time)

0.8-1.2 sec
Mechanical ventilation initial PEEP

5-10 cmH2O
Mechanical ventilation initial sensitivity

-0.5 - -2 cmH2O from baseline
Mechanical ventilation initial FiO2

0.21 - 1.0 to get PaO2 of 60-100 mmHg
