Comparing Different Startegies of Positive Pressure Ventilation in Children

Pediatric patients in the VCV group (n= 30) received volume-controlled ventilation, target tidal volume was set at 7 mL/kg, with a respiratory rate of 16 breaths/min and a respiratory ratio of 1:2.

Pediatric patients in the PCV group(n=30) received pressure-controlled ventilation. The initial parameters will be as follows: the peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) will set to provide a tidal volume of 7 ml/kg , respiratory rate will be 16 breaths/min, inspiratory to expiratory ratio was 1:2 with an upper limit of PIP of 20 cm H2O.

Pediatric patients in the PCV-VG group (n=30)will be conducted with pressure-controlled volume-guaranteed ventilation, target tidal volume will set at 7 mL/kg, with a respiratory rate of 16 breaths/min and a respiratory ratio of 1:2.
