Abstract
Automatic ventilators enable the provision of intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) to support ventilation in anaesthetized or heavily sedated patients. An automatic ventilator is an invaluable tool that provides repeated, controlled breaths, so allowing the anaesthetist to attend to other aspects of patient monitoring and support. This chapter deals with indications for IPPV, when to initiate IPPV, physiological effects of IPPV, classification of automatic ventilators and their practical use.
