Question
Answer
Describe dynamic compliance?   show
🗑
Describe static compliance?   show
🗑
show They will become less compliant  
🗑
show Cstat will decrease w/ resistance or ↑ w/ air-trapping; Cdyn will decrease or become less C w/ an obstruction  
🗑
Define the term “cycle”   show
🗑
show Pressure and Flow (pt.), Timed (vent.), Manuel (operator)  
🗑
Describe mean airway pressure,   show
🗑
What ventilator parameters (i.e. PEEP, Ti) that affects Paw.   show
🗑
What is the advantage of SIMV vs. IMV?   show
🗑
What blood gas value is the primary indicator of adequate ventilation?   show
🗑
show barotraumas, ↓ venous return, Qt and renal blood flow, ↑ WOB, PVR, ICP, deadspace, mean airway pressure.  
🗑
show barotraumas*, ↓ venous return, Qt*, renal blood flow, urine output, and gastrointestinal function (due to ↓ blood flow), also an ↑ in ICP, PVR, deadspace and mean airway pressure.  
🗑
What will be the result of an ↑ Raw or a ↓ in compliance on a volume cycled ventilator?   show
🗑
What will be the result of an ↑ Raw or a ↓ in compliance on a pressure, time cycled ventilator?   show
🗑
show 70%  
🗑
Heated Wick % humidity?   show
🗑
High Pressure Alarm Setting?   show
🗑
High rate alarm setting?   show
🗑
show 10-15 below set Vt  
🗑
show 4  
🗑
show < 20 sec  
🗑
I:E alarm setting?   show
🗑
show flow* or I-Time* or Vt or even RR (changes TCT)  
🗑
show 30  
🗑
show 30  
🗑
What FIO2 limit is considered dangerous in regards to possible O2 toxicity?   show
🗑
What settings on a ventilator are used to ↑ or ↓ the PaO2?   show
🗑
Describe how PEEP ↑ blood oxygenation.   show
🗑
Describe how ↑ the TI can improve blood oxygenation.   show
🗑
Calculate the corrected Vt for the following pt: PIP = 50, Cmech = 2.5 ml/cmH20, delivered Vt = 900 ml.   show
🗑
What is the appropriate action for any ventilator problem that is not immediately identified and corrected?   show
🗑
show Increase Vt or RR (Adjust Vt first, but if Vt is ideal then go w/ RR)  
🗑
What ventilator changes could be made to correct a respiratory alkalosis?   show
🗑
What 3 changes could be made to correct a low PaO2?   show
🗑
show ↓ FIO2 and/or I-Time  
🗑
What is the goal for the PaCO2 and pH when mechanically ventilating a COPDer w/ chronic hypercapnea?   show
🗑
show 6-10 ml/kg  
🗑
What factors are to be optimized before considering a pt. for weaning off a vent?   show
🗑
show RSBI 105(predicts spontaneous breathing), SBT, MEP + 40,MIP = >-20 to -30 cmH2O, VE = < 10 L, VC = >10 – 15 ml/Kg, Spontaneous tidal volume = > 300 ml, Respiratory rate = < 25/min  
🗑
show Spontaneous breathing trial, off vent w/ T-Piece/CPAP (both spontaneous), SIMV (decrease to 2), PSV (basically CPAP)  
🗑
show Gradual ↑ on pt’s ventilatory load by decresing the rate, Machine breaths are decreased by 2 breaths at a time (incremental changes), Patient takes over with spontaneous efforts to maintain the VE needed to stabilize PaCO2  
🗑
show PSV can be added to help “fine tune” incremental changes and maintain adequate spontaneous Vt (>300 ml)  
🗑
show 20 seconds  
🗑
What techniques are used to monitor the possible cardiac effects from positive pressure ventilation?   show
🗑
Describe possible advantages of pressure control ventilation over volume control ventilation.   show
🗑
show think barotrauma; only let go of maintaining CO2 for the sake of the lungs.  
🗑
Describe the 2 diff types of res. failure. What disease processes are associated w/ each?   show
🗑
A/C mode, 600 Vt w/ a rate of 12, w/o spont.efforts: 7.25/CO2 55/HCO3 23/PaO2 80/ at an FIO2 .35   show
🗑
show Compensated Respiratory Acidosis w/ moderate hypoxia; Increase FIO2  
🗑
A/C mode, 600 Vt w/ a rate of 12, w/o spont.efforts: 7.51/CO2 25/HCO3 23/PaO2 90/ at an FIO2 .45   show
🗑
show Normal ABG; except the PaO2, so lower the FIO2. It's over the toxic level anyway.  
🗑
A/C mode, 600 Vt w/ a rate of 12, w/o spont.efforts: 7.36/CO2 65/HCO3 38/PaO2 100/ at an FIO2 .45 (COPD pt being considered for weaning)   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
