Abstract

Pressure Support Ventilation (PSV) is a ventilatory mode designed to unload the respiratory muscles, while preserving the spontaneous respiratory activity of the patient [1]. FSV has been used both as a weaning technique and as a stand-alone ventilatory support mode in patients with acute respiratory failure [2,3].
