Abstract
A volume ventilating respirator, especially for infant and pediatric use, has a pair of different size volume chambers with means for selecting one or the other for specific use. There is a selector affording a choice of several different ventilating modes including deep breaths at chosen periods or events. The operation is generally automatic with response to patient effort, if desired, and has some responses to manual signals; i.e. deep breath and inspiration. The operation is electric with pneumatic and electronic controls and logic and numerous event indicators and alarms.
