Initial venti-lator settings should include which of the following? a. Volume-controlled continuous mandatory ventilation (VC-CMV), respiratory fre-quency (f) 15 breaths/min, tidal volume (VT) 750 mL, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 5 cm H2O, fractional in-spired oxygen (FIO2) 1.0 b. Pressure-controlled continuous mandatory ventilation (PC-CMV), f 15 breaths/min, peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) 35 cm H2O, PEEP 10 cm H2O, FIO2 1.0 c. Volume-controlled intermittent mandatory ventilation (VC-IMV), f 6 breaths/min, VT 300 mL, pressure support (PS) 10 cm H2O, PEEP 5 cm H2O, FIO2 0.50 d. Pressure-controlled intermittent mandato-ry ventilation (PC-IMV), f 12 breaths/min, PIP 20 cm H2O, PS 10 cm H2O, PEEP 5 cm H2O, FIO2 0.40
