Ventilator measurements that affect 11ea4b05_ea56_109f_ab93_db7006a57424_TB4069_11 include CPAP and PEEP levels, inspiratory time (flow rate, flow patterns), peak pressure, and rate. A simple method of calculating 11ea4b05_ea56_10a0_ab93_393d2a7d5174_TB4069_11 is as follows:
 11ea4b05_ea56_10a1_ab93_3169769efe64_TB4069_11 = [1/2 (PIP - PEEP) × (Inspiratory time/Total cycle time)] + PEEP
