Feedback:
Controlled-breath ventilation breathes for the client, forcing a breath at set time intervals. Volume ventilation delivers a consistent, preset volume of air with each breath, ensuring adequate breathing. Pressure ventilation pushes air into the lungs until a preset pressure is achieved. Assisted-breath ventilation helps support clients who are inadequately breathing on their own.
