what happens if you exceed __ml/kg of ideal body weight for tidal volume settings
over 8ml/kg for tidal volume settings can cause ventilatior associated lung injuries*slowly increase and reassess every 15min
ventilator setting for tidal volume

SIMV
synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation
how does SIMV work

how does Pressure Support Ventilation (PSV) work
pressure support makes it easier to overcome the resistance of the ET tube and is often used during weaning b/c it reduces WOB*supports or provides pressure during inspiration to decrease pt’s overall WBO
what does pt determine in PSV
pressure support ventilation| *tidal volume and rate
PSV

how to determine proper pressure in a-line system
determine dampening*no more/less than 3 ossillations before returning to baseline
too little dampening
many ossillations. too little dampening that the ossillations won’t die and continue to reverberate
too much pressure in the a-line system

= obstruction in a-line systemtoo much pressure

underdampening
a-line system is too dynamic & has too little pressure

2 effects of IABP
increase coronary perfusiondecrease workload of the heart
IABP balloon during systole
deflated
IABP balloon during diastole

insertion of IABP
inserted into femoral artery directed towards the heart
where does the IABP sit
in descending aortadistal to left subclavian arteryabove renal artery
how do you check IABP placement
left radial pusle (left subclavian blockage causes limb ischemia)adequate UOP b/c renal artery artery decreses UOPCXR
intervention for IABP if power failure
manually pump every 3-5 minutes to prevent blood from clotting on the balloon
IABP at altitude
dont need to purge air b/c self burge
transporting IABP
bring exter helium tanks
how to tell if IABP balloon has ruptured
rust/brown flankes in IABP tubing -flakes are clotted RBC’s inside the tubing
rust brown flakes in IABP tubing
IABP balloon has ruptured
