Continuous spontaneous ventilation

Continuous spontaneous ventilation is any mode of mechanical ventilation where every breath is spontaneous (i.e., patient triggered and patient cycled).

Dependent modes

Some modes of mechanical ventilation require spontaneous ventilation, some of these include:

Bilevel positive airway pressure (BPAP, BiPAP®)
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
Airway pressure release ventilation^[1] (APRV, (BiVent®)
