1. A ventilatory system with a smart prompt module for issuing a smart prompt when double triggering is implicated during a volume-control (VC) breath type of a patient, comprising: at least one processor; and at least one memory, communicatively coupled to the at least one processor and containing instructions executed by the at least one processor to: detect that double triggering is implicated for a patient; identify that the patient is being ventilated in a volume-control (VC) breath type, determine an appropriate notification, and determine an appropriate list of entries for mitigating the double triggering based at least in part on the volume-control (VC) breath type; and display the appropriate notification message and the appropriate list of entries for mitigating the double triggering.
