Harvest the cucumbers when young. Slicing cucumbers should be about 6 to 8 inches (15.24 to 20.32 cm) long. Cucumbers can usually be twisted off the vine without the use of shears. Pickling cucumbers should be harvested at 2 inches (5 cm) and dills should be harvested at 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15.24 cm).
Assist-Control Ventilation (ACV) Also known as continuous mandatory ventilation (CMV). Each breath is either an assist or control breath, but they are all of the same volume. The larger the volume, the more expiratory time required. If the I:E ratio is less than 1:2, progressive hyperinflation may result.
Adaptive Support VentilationÂ® (ASVÂ®) 1  Intelligent ventilation mode for passive and spontaneously breathing adult and pediatric patients. 2  Automatically adjusts ventilation to lung mechanics and applies lung-protective strategies. 3  Shortens ventilation time.
