HHS; Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar coma; Nonketotic hyperglycemic hyperosmolar coma (NKHHC); Hyperosmolar nonketotic coma (HONK); Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar non-ketotic state; Diabetes - hyperosmolar Patient Instructions
Pressure support is a pressure-targeted mode of ventilatory support. Each inspiratory effort by the patient is augmented by an elevation in the airway pressure at the onset of an inspiratory effort.
Pressure. Pressure is the ratio of force to the area over which that force is distributed. Pressure is force per unit area applied in a direction perpendicular to the surface of an object. Gauge pressure is the pressure relative to the local atmospheric or ambient pressure.
