➡️ Trigger Sensitivity
The sensitivity control is what determines how much effort the patient must generate in order to trigger a breath from the machine. And when I say effort, what I'm really referring to is how much negative pressure the patient must generate for the ventilator to deliver a breath.
🟦 The normal sensitivity setting should be set between -1 and -2 cmH2O.
If the sensitivity is set too high, it will cause the ventilator to initiate auto-triggering and increase the total frequency of breaths. If it’s set too low, the patient could have a difficult time initiating a breath. So this is definitely something that all of my Respiratory Therapy students should remember, especially those who are preparing for the TMC Exam. Whenever you see a question about a patient who is struggling to initiate a breath, just remember that you likely need to adjust the sensitivity setting.
