ABSTRACT(244words) Objectives: Battery life (BL) of portable home ventilators batteries are reported by manufacturers. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of ventilatory mode, respiratory frequency, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), and leaks on the BL of 5 commercially available portable ventilators. Design: The effect of the ventilatory mode (volume controlled-continuous mandatory ventilation [VC-CMV] vs Pressure Support ventilation [PS]), PEEP 5 cmH2O, respiratory frequency (10, 15 and 20 cycles/min), and leaks during both VTV and PS on the BL of5 ventilators (Elisee 150, Monnal T50, PB 560, Vivo 50, and Trilogy 100) were evaluated. Each ventilator was ventilated with a test lung at a tidal volume of 700 ml and an inspiratory time 1.2 in the absence of leaks. Main results: The switch of a VC-CMV mode for a PS mode or the addition of PEEP did not significantly change the ventilator BL. The increase of the respiratory frequency from 10 to 20 cycles/min decreased the BL of 18 ± 11% (P
