  2. Pressure support ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_support

    The patient initiates every breath and the ventilator delivers support with the preset pressure value. With support from the ventilator, the patient also regulates their own respiratory rate and tidal volume. [1] In Pressure Support, the set inspiratory pressure support level is kept constant and there is a decelerating flow. The patient ...

  3. Positive end-expiratory pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_end-expiratory...

    Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is the pressure in the lungs (alveolar pressure) above atmospheric pressure (the pressure outside of the body) that exists at the end of expiration. [1] The two types of PEEP are extrinsic PEEP (PEEP applied by a ventilator) and intrinsic PEEP (PEEP caused by an incomplete exhalation).

  4. Continuous positive airway pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_positive_airway...

    The therapy is an alternative to positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Both modalities stent open the alveoli in the lungs and thus recruit more of the lung surface area for ventilation. However, while PEEP refers to devices that impose positive pressure only at the end of the exhalation , CPAP devices apply continuous positive airway ...

  5. Orifice plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orifice_plate

    Orifice plate showing vena contracta. An orifice plate is a thin plate with a hole in it, which is usually placed in a pipe. When a fluid (whether liquid or gaseous) passes through the orifice, its pressure builds up slightly upstream of the orifice [1] but as the fluid is forced to converge to pass through the hole, the velocity increases and the fluid pressure decreases.

  6. Peak inspiratory pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_inspiratory_pressure

    Peak inspiratory pressure (P IP) is the highest level of pressure applied to the lungs during inhalation. [1] In mechanical ventilation the number reflects a positive pressure in centimeters of water pressure (cm H 2 O). In normal breathing, it may sometimes be referred to as the maximal inspiratory pressure (M IPO), which is a negative value. [2]

  7. Airway pressure release ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airway_pressure_release...

    A pressure-time graphic. Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a pressure control mode of mechanical ventilation that utilizes an inverse ratio ventilation strategy. APRV is an applied continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) that at a set timed interval releases the applied pressure. Depending on the ventilator manufacturer, it may ...

  8. Butterworth cover - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterworth_Cover

    Butterworth hatches are not the main access hatches, but are the servicing hatches, and are generally closed with a metal cover plate with a gasket that is fastened to the deck by a number of bolts which stick up from the deck. Holes on the edges of the plate fit over these bolts and the cover is fastened down with nuts or dogs.

  9. Sanitary manhole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanitary_manhole

    The cover section is the top most section of sanitary manholes. It consists of a frame and a manhole cover. [16] The covers are designed to withstand the loads of the traffic on top of the manholes. Some are suitable for vehicular traffic, and some are for foot traffic only. [7]
