Anesthesiology Clinics, 2021 Today's management of the ventilated patient still relies on the measurement of old parameters such as airway pressures and flow. Graphical presentations reveal the intricacies of patient-ventilator interactions in times of supporting the patient on the ventilator instead of fully ventilating the heavily sedated patient.
