5.5.13 Target Volume
The Target Volume setting defines the tidal volume that the ventilator will aim for while
ventilating the patient in a pressure mode. To aim for the preset volume, the ventilator
will adapt the Inspiratory Pressure between two adjustable pressure limits: Min Pressure
and Max Pressure.
When Target Volume is active, the mode field on the ventilator display will indicate
"(TgV)".

Target Volume Parameters
When target volume is on, the following parameters are enabled:
Max Pressure
Max Pressure defines the upper pressure limit up to where the ventilator can increase
the pressure to reach the set Target Volume. If Target Volume is not reached at Max
Pressure, the ventilator will continue to ventilate at this Max Pressure setting.

Min Pressure
Min Pressure defines the lower pressure limit down to where the ventilator can
decrease the pressure to maintain the set Target Volume. If the actual volume is above
Target Volume at Min Pressure, the ventilator will continue to ventilate at this Min
Pressure setting.
