The ventilator mode where every breath is patient triggered,pressure targeted,flow cycled with a volume target is which of the following?

Question

The mode being described is basically pressure support with a volume target.This describes volume support ventilation (VSV).Pressure regulated volume control (PRVC)is similar;however,the breaths can be either patient- or time-triggered.Pressure augmentation (Paug)is similar to VSV;however,not every breath is flow cycled.If the volume is not met during inspiration,the ventilator will change to volume cycle.Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV)is a dual mode of ventilation that allows spontaneous breathing at two levels of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP),where pressure support can be added.
