What are some physiological advantages of volume-assured pressure-supported ventilation?
I.improved patient-ventilator synchrony
II.increased pressure-time product
III.decreased work of breathing

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

I and III are correct. Volume-assured pressure support ventilation improves patient-ventilator synchrony and decreases the work of breathing by automatically adjusting pressure support to meet a target tidal volume, thus ensuring adequate ventilation while minimizing the effort required by the patient.
