What caused this inspiration to end prematurely? (AzQ) JM The ventilator pressure cycled and raised the peak airway pressure that the vent sensed during the sneeze.
If we set a PEEP for a pt on 10 cmH2O and after a breath hold, the vent says the pt has a total PEEP of 25 cmH2O? What does this tell us? Why would we want to know this? (ApQ) JM This shows the pt has an intrinsic PEEP of 15cmH2O. This is important to know if the pt is air trapping (COPD).
