Guidelines on setting the target minute ventilation in Adaptive Support Ventilation
Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV) is a fully closed loop ventilation where the operator input the desired PEEP, FiO2 and the target minute ventilation (MV) expressed as a percentage according to ideal body weight.

From state-of-the-art ventilation to closed loop ventilation
Recent emphasis on energy load delivered during each ventilatory breath has opened a new insight to reduce harmful ventilatory induced lung injury, but no robust clinical evidence of patient benefit produced yet. Closed loop ventilation is a strategy to

The Physiology of Ventilation [PDF]
The diffusion of gases brings the partial pressures of O2 and CO2 in blood and alveolar gas to an equilibrium at the pulmonary blood-gas barrier. Alveolar PCO2 (PACO2) dependson the balance between the amount of CO2 being added by pulmonary blood and the amount being eliminated by alveolar ventilation (V ̇ A).

Ventilation And Ventilators [PDF]
The history of ventilation is reviewed briefly and recent developments in techniques of ventilation are discussed. Operating features of ventilators have changed in the past few years, partly as the result of clinical progress; yet, technology appears to have outstripped the clinician's ability to harness it most effectively.

Natural ventilation and cooling by evaporation in hot-arid climates [PDF]
In hot climates, outside air is too hot during the day. In hot arid climates, low humidity increases discomfort. For comfort, hot air should be cooled before flowing into dwellings and moisture in the moving air increased.
