In pressure support what is the mechanical trigger and cycle? (CZ)(AzQ)
In pressure support there is not a mechanical trigger and the cycle is patient determined.
If you have a patient with a stable lung problem, what type of ventilation is best for them?
Pressure regulated volume control. (KM)
In which mode is there a set Vt for every breath and in which situations would you use this? (AzQ)
Volume Control. Situations where a patient has no lung damage but needs full support such as sepsis, head injusry, post-op cardiac code.. (AT)
A patient comes in to the ER with an unknown injury to the head and the physician wants the patient put on mechanical ventilation, what type of support would be needed and in what mode?(AzQ)
Volume Control (rk)
What settings are not allowed in Minimal Support Mode? (AH)
Rate and Volume. (AH)
In full support mode, what setting is not allowed? RQ (JM)
Pressure support
What settings would you set if you had a patient in SIMV-Volume mode? And if the patient takes spontaneous breaths between the mechanical breaths what determines the rate and depth?(ApQ)
Vt, RR, Itime, FiO2, alarms, PEEP (optional) and pressure support (optional)
the patient will determine the rate and depth (MK)
A patient comes in to the ER with a severe injury and the physician wants the patient put on mechanical ventialtion, what ype of support would be needed and in what mode?
