1. A ventilator-implemented method for detecting double triggering during a volume-control (VC) breath type of a patient, the method comprising: collecting data associated with ventilatory parameters; processing the collected ventilatory parameter data, wherein the step of processing the collected ventilatory parameter data comprises deriving ventilatory parameter data from the collected ventilatory parameter data; analyzing the processed ventilatory parameter data, wherein the step of analyzing the processed ventilatory parameter data comprises: receiving at least one predetermined threshold associated with the processed ventilatory parameter data; and detecting whether the processed ventilatory parameter data breaches the received at least one predetermined threshold at a predetermined frequency; identifying that a patient is being ventilated with a volume-control (VC) breath type; determining that double triggering is implicated for the patient upon detecting that the processed ventilatory data breaches the received at least one predetermined threshold at the predetermined frequency; and issuing a smart prompt when the double triggering is implicated based at least in part on the volume-control (VC) breath type.
