I found patients who have "vent" and "nivdurations" at the same time for multiple consecutive hours. For example icustay_id=200019. So my question is, does "vent" represent invasive mechanical ventilation? If so, is it normal to have both invasive and non-invasive ventilation at the same time?
Thank you!
