Question
Answer
Define the workload of a breath (RQ) (KH)   show
🗑
show The complete emptying of the lungs and complete relaxation of the thoracic cavity...Passive (ApQ) (KH)  
🗑
What are the four control variables of a breath and what are they measured in? (AzQ) (KH)   show
🗑
show Muscle pressure and ventilator pressure (RQ) (MK)  
🗑
There are 4 phases of a breath. What are they and which ones are Active and which are passive? (AzQ) (MK)   show
🗑
show Cycling (ApQ) (MK)  
🗑
What does PEEP increase in order to aid in improved gas exchange? (AT)   show
🗑
What is an Expiratory Retard and when is it used? (AT)   show
🗑
How do you determine the time allowed for each breath? (AT)   show
🗑
What is Triggering? (AB)   show
🗑
How would you prevent air trapping for a COPD pt who is using a ventilator and why do we do this? (AB)   show
🗑
show 16 (ApQ)  
🗑
show triggering- what causes beginning of inspiration and causes the change from exhalation to inspiration cycling- causes the end of inspiration and the start of exhalation limiting- max value a variable can attain during inspiration (AqQ) (BH)  
🗑
List two things that the muscle pressure and ventilator pressure are dependent on. (RQ) (BH)   show
🗑
show 1. Exhalation to Inspiration 2. Inspiration 3. Inspiration to exhalation 4. Exhalation (ApQ) (BH)  
🗑
What is cycling? (RQ) (JB)   show
🗑
show Inspiration to exhalation. (ApQ) (JB)  
🗑
Out of the 4 phases of a breath which ones are active and which are passive? (AzQ) (JB)   show
🗑
show Muscle(RQ)(TM)  
🗑
What is inspiration and is it active or passive?(ApQ)(TM)   show
🗑
What is Expiratory Hold and why do we use this?(AzQ)(TM)   show
🗑
show It occurs naturally when the respiratory muscles relax. (RQ)  
🗑
show To leave pressure in the alveoli to keep them open which results in better oxygenation. (ApQ)  
🗑
show when we need to measure the intrinsic PEEP of the patient (AzQ)  
🗑
show They are muscle pressure and ventilator pressure, we only use ventilator pressure! (ApQ)  
🗑
What units are pressure in? (KAH)   show
🗑
Describe the inspiration to exhalation phase and is it passive or active? (KAH)   show
🗑
What does the Expiratory Phase have the greatest affect on in the ventilation process. (NB)   show
🗑
After increasing the PEEP on a vent; What are 2 benfits your patient may experience? What type of effects might this have on their Capacities? What capacity is most directly affected? (NB)   show
🗑
Once a patient meets a Limiting Phase Variable what will the ventilator do? (NB)   show
🗑
Your Pt has a limiting phase variable of 30Lpm wich they have reached. This pt also has a Vt set at 600ml. They are currently sitting at a Vt of 425ml during inspiration. At this point how will the ventilator respond to this Limiting phase variable? (NB)   show
🗑
What is the difference between volume controlled breathing and flow controlled breathing?   show
🗑
What problem do patients with chronic obstructve airway disease have with NEEP?   show
🗑
What is a limit variable?   show
🗑
What are the 4 phases of a Breath? (MB)   show
🗑
So you are finding the pressure produced in one breath what units will it be in? (MB)   show
🗑
show 10cmH2O ApQ  
🗑
show Purse Lip breathing. (RQ)  
🗑
show Trigger, Time, Flow, And/or Pressure (ApQ)  
🗑
show Exhalation, expiratory hold, expiratory retard, and PEEP (AzQ)  
🗑
When a COPD patient is on the ventilator, what may happen over time? And how do we adjust for it? AzQ (ACE)   show
🗑
What a difference between PEEP, NEEP, and ZEEP? RQ (ACE)   show
🗑
show flow and inhalation time (AC)  
🗑
show inhalation (AC)  
🗑
show ml=volume, cmwp=pressure,bpm=time (AC)  
🗑
Most things that can be manipulated are done on the ______ phase. RQ (BL)   show
🗑
Triggering happens during which phase? Cycling? Limiting? AzQ (BL)   show
🗑
show it is passive, little to no effects can happen  
🗑
show By time  
🗑
show Time trigger  
🗑
show Increased PIP  
🗑
show Limiting; final (KJ)  
🗑
The phase that allows a maximum exhlation. COPD pts love this because we mimic pursed lip breathing? This is called_____? (KJ)RQ   show
🗑
show Mandatory breath (KJ)  
🗑
What are the units pressure is measured in? (CZ)(RQ)   show
🗑
You set a RR of 14 bpm on a triggered setting. How often is that ventilator going to start and deliver a breath? (CZ)(ApQ)   show
🗑
show The three active phases are: exhalation to inspiration, inspiration, and inspiration to exhalation. Exhalation is not and this is because it naturally happens.  
🗑
The main variable that the ventilator changes to cause inspiration is called what? (Marianne B.)   show
🗑
In what cases would pressure limiting be important? (Marianne B.)   show
🗑
When might time triggering be beneficial? When might patient triggering be beneficial? (Marianne B.)   show
🗑
What is the only passive phase of a breath? (JoeB)   show
🗑
show Cycling  
🗑
Why would we want to increase PEEP? (JoeB)   show
🗑
If the thoracic cavity is being allowed to start recoiliing, what stage of breathing are you in? (JAB)   show
🗑
If the reading you are looking at is measured in units of LPM, what variable is this? How is this variable defined? (JAB)   show
🗑
show 30LPM  
🗑
