Acute severe asthma: PEFR RR HR one breath
Acute severe asthma: PEFR 33-50% predicted RR>25 HR>110 inability to complete sentences in one breath
Life threatening asthma: PEFR SPO2 Chest signs Consciousness PaCO2 PaO2 pH
Life threatening asthma: PEFR <33% pred SPO2 <92% Chest signs: silent, cyanosis reduced effort Consciousness - altered PaCO2 - normal 4.6-6.0kPa PaO2 - <8kPa acidosis

ARDS definition:
onset within 7 days of defined event (e.g sepsis)
bilat opacities consistent c pulm odema
resp failrure not fully explained by cardiac failure/fuild overload. objective assessment with ECHO
ARDS management:
alveolar recruitment, increase mean airway pressure with PEEP or prolong inspiratory time. ardsNET TRIAL:
- PCV
- TV 6ml/kg ideal body wt
- plateau pr <30cm h20
- titrare fio2 to pao2 8kpa
permissive hypercapnia 8kPa increase RR to reduce paco2
paeds dose para ibu diclo fent morph codeine dex ondans
paeds doses: paracetamol 15mg/kg ibuprofen 10mg/kg diclofenac 1mg/kg fentanyl 1mcg/kg morphine 0.1-0.2mcg/kg codein 0.5mg/kg dex 0.1-0.2mg/kg ondans 0.1-0.2mg/kg
paed lma size: 1 1.5 2 2.5 3
paeds lma size for weight 1 → <5kg 1.5 → 5-10kg 2 → 10-20kg 2.5 → 20-30kg 3 → 30-50kg
paeds ett diameter size:
e.g. 9 yo
ett size (age/4) +4 (9/4)+4 = 6.25 so 6.0-6.5 as 8 yo is 6, 10 yo is 6.5
paeds tube length at lips
e.g. 9 yo
(age/2) + 12cm
e.g 9 yo → 16.5cm
nasal ett tube length
age/2 + 15 ( tube at lips +3cm)
9 yo → 19.5cm
adult tube length at lips =
(height cm/7)-2.5cm
