Average volume-assured pressure support ventilation mode in the management of acute hypercapnic respiratory failure

Egyptian Journal of Bronchology volume 11, pages 231–237 (2017)Cite this article

Abstract

Background

Although average volume-assured pressure support (AVAPS) mode has been studied in chronic respiratory failure, studies evaluating its efficacy in acute hypercapnic respiratory failure (AHRF) are limited.

Objective

The aim of this study was to investigate the benefits of spontaneous timed AVAPS (ST/AVAPS) mode in delivering noninvasive ventilation (NIV) for patients with AHRF compared with the conventional ST/BiPAP (ResMED, San Diego, California, USA) mode.
