Abstract
Introduction
2
cardiopulmonary abnormalities in ambulatory patients, and these effects may be
magnified in critically ill patients.
This study will determine and evaluate the sleep quality of the patients
mechanically ventilated and sought to answer the following:
3
2. What are sleep qualities of patients in each ventilatory mode?
2.1 Apneas
2.2 Sleep fragmentation
2.3 Minute ventilation while awake and asleep
3. What is the duration of hours of sleep of each patient in each ventilatory
mode?
Significance of the Study
The findings of the study may be helpful and will be significant to the following:
Nursing students. This may help the students to cope with the procedures
specifically in the ICU Concept and in the mechanical ventilators, which is the
main focus of the study.
Future Researchers. This study will serve as a reference for the future
researchers who want to focus on the study of the Assist-control ventilation
ventilation pressure support ventilation on sleep quality in mechanically ventilated
patient
Nurses. This may help the nurses to cope with situational cases especially in
relation to the Assist-control ventilation and pressure support ventilation on sleep
quality in mechanically ventilated patient. It would enhance the nurse’s capability
of giving quality care to patients as well.
This chapter describes the method of research used in the study, subjects
to be observed, sources of data, data gathering procedures that are necessary to
complete the study and the instruments used to gather necessary information.
This will enable researchers to establish order in the conduct of research.
Research Methodology
4
In quantitative research your aim is to determine the relationship between one
thing (an independent variable) and another (a dependent or outcome variable)
in a population. Quantitative research designs are either descriptive (subjects
usually measured once) or experimental (subjects measured before and after a
treatment). In our research it is experimental, because it is a collection of
research designs which use manipulation and controlled testing to understand
causal processes. Generally, one or more variables are manipulated to
determine their effect on a dependent variable.
Sampling Technique
5
Information was gathered through previous studies and literature that was
related to the study proper. This therefore aided the research study to its
conclusions.

INTERPRETATION

In figure 2.3.2 minute ventilation when asleep 45% experienced
apneas while 55% did not.
ANALYSIS
Minute ventilation during sleep was greater in patients who did not
develop apneas than in patients who developed apneas, suggesting that
increased respiratory drive protects against the development of central apneas.
