Looks pretty accurate, I work ICU myself and yeah....looks good buddy.

I would have added CPAP as that's kind of the big one that gets chucked about in the media, I don't know if you want to put an edit in to cover that or if you're planning on covering it if you write about modes. If you want I can send you a PM with a definition if your struggling to find one.

Thanks I plan that in part 2 on modes including Cpap, BiPAP, SIMV PC, VC, PRVC... Debating if I should go down the APRV rabbit hole

Thanks everybody!

I think this is enough.

I wouldn’t touch stuff like APRV because then where do you stop?

Next you could start down ecmo rabbit holes and all kinds of stuff.
