Minimizing work of breathing with continuous positive airway pressure and intermittent mandatory ventilation: An improved continuous low-flow system

Minimizing work of breathing (WOB) during intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV) and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is important as it facilitates weaning from mechanical ventilation. To minimize WOB, we devised a simple, continuous-flow CPAP-IMV system that uses a weighted, partially...
