back-up back up system Explanation: From your context and all of the examples you provided, it appears that they are using back-up in the same way you talk about a back up electrical generator which kicks in when the electrical system goes down. Also the same as a computer back up. This from the Merriam Webster dictionary: back·up noun, often attributive Definition of BACKUP 1a : one that serves as a substitute or support <a backup plan> c : additional personnel who provide assistance 3: a copy of computer data (as a file or the contents of a hard drive); also : the act or an instance of making a backup They date the term of this use back to 1951 http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/backup You could think about it this way: a back up is that which gets you back up and running. |

Bi-level pressure devices VPAP or BiPAP (Variable/Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure) provides two levels of pressure: Inspiratory Positive Airway Pressure (IPAP) and a lower Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP) for easier exhalation. (Some people use the term BPAP to parallel the terms APAP and CPAP.) Modes S (Spontaneous) - In spontaneous mode the device triggers IPAP when flow sensors detect spontaneous inspiratory effort and then cycles back to EPAP. T (Timed) - In timed mode the IPAP/EPAP cycling is purely machine-triggered, at a set rate, typically expressed in breaths per minute (BPM). S/T (Spontaneous/Timed) - Like spontaneous mode, the device triggers to IPAP on patient inspiratory effort. But in spontaneous/timed mode a "backup" rate is also set to ensure that patients still receives a minimum number of breaths per minute if they fail to breathe spontaneously. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2010-08-28 14:14:49 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- # [PDF] CLASIFICACION DE LAS MODALIDADES VENTILATORIA: 1.
