I have been assigned some work to help the office "catch up" and this is not my normal assignment.  Can someone help me with ventilator terminology??  I may be far off, but here is what I think I am hearing.

S/l MMB 6, with tidal volumes of 780 and his Fi02 is 30%.  Not sure of MMB 6? Sorry if this is something in "my books"!  I do not want to ask something that is readily available, but I have looked and cannot find this.
