description

We performed a bench and human study to test the hypothesis that a ventilator can accurately estimate Vt when a helmet is used in CPAP mode in a single limb configuration with an intentional leak port placed at the helmet expiratory port. We have recently demonstrated the effectiveness of this setup in bilevel mode
