Q

describe all you can about the “free floating” valves.

A
  • moves in direction being pushed by gas
  • found in DISS and hanger yoke systems
  • primary goal- to prevent gas from leaking out of the system
  • Ex- a pressureized system from the cylinder will push these valves closed to prevent gases from escaping or leaking out of the system.

Q

explain everthing you now about a ball and spring valve.

A
  • YOU supply the energy
  • Function is to permit gas flow after you have made a connection (such as plugging the gas lines into the wall)
  • can all “ALL or NONE” -b/c its hooked up and working or not
  • ex- the oxygen flush valve- when you push it O2 comes out when you let go it stops
  • basically anywhere there is a connection

Q

explain everything you can about the diaphragm valve

A
  • there are ONLY 2
  • The first and 2nd stage regulators
  • These valves REDUCE pressure
  • 1st stage regulator takes cylinder pressure and decreases it to 45 psi
  • The 2nd stage regulator reduces hospital pressure to 16 psi

28
Q

Single Hanger yoke:

what type of cylinders fit into it?

A

E

29
Q

Single Hanger yoke:

What type of valve is the hanger yoke valve? and how do you know?

A

Free floating valve

Opens with pressure and closes with pressure

30
Q

Single Hanger yoke:

What is the purpose of the Hanger yoke valve?

A

Prevents a full cylinder from emptying into an empty cylinder or wall oxygen from entering a cylinder

31

33
Q

what is the name of the gauge that shows oxygen tank pressure?

A

Bourdon

34
Q

You have a dual hanger yoke with 2 oxygen E cylinders. Both E cylinders are turned on; which one will supply the gas machine?

A

the one with the higher pressure

35
Q

The bourden gauge shows a pressure of 825psig what does this mean

A

There is 825 psig (pressure) from the oxygen E cylinder

36
Q

In a dual hanger yoke system what prevents one cylinder from emptying into the other?

A

The FREE FLOATING VALVE

37
Q

Oxygen pressure sensor Valve:

what are its other names

A

pressure sensor shut off valve

Fail safe valve

38
Q

Oxygen pressure sensor Valve:

Q

Oxygen pressure sensor Valve:

is it actually a sensor?

A

nope; it senses pressure

Q

Oxygen pressure sensor Valve:

explaint the valve in both the Ohmeda and Drager. (not too important which one does what just the principles of how they work)

A
  • Ohmeda
    • All or none
    • minimum 25 psi to open the valve
  • Drager
    • Varible flow porportioning system
    • 1/2 O2 can give 1/2 N20 etc

A

Adjust the limit of pressure in teh patient circuit and rebreathing bag

50
Q

APL valve:

tightening the valve does what to the pressure

A

Increases it

Q

APL valve:

it is attached to what check valve

Q

What delivery system problems may cause hypercabia

A
  • Apnea
  • Inadequate MV
  • Increased Deadspace in apparatus
  • Missing unidirectional valve
  • Incorectly assembled circuit
  • Exhausted carbon dioxide absorbant
  • Inadequate fresh gas flow
53
Q

what delivery system problems may cause hypoxia

A
  • empty O2 cylinder
  • Incorrect cylinder
  • closed O2 cylinder valve
  • Oxygen flow meter off
  • Oxygen leak
  • incompetent or absent unidirectional valves
  • inadequate ventilation
54
Q

you are a molecule of O2 in an E cylinder. Identify your path to the intubated pt. Identify how you are moving, any valves you pass through, and any prressure changes

A
  • E cylinder
  • open cylinder valve
  • hanger yoke system
  • opens free floating valve of this E cylinder and simultaneously closes the free floating valve of the other hanging yoke system AND activates the Bourden Gauge to read cylinder pressure
  • Goes to first stage regulator (diaphragm valve) reducing pressure to intermediate (45psi) and simultaneously to the following
    • Oxygen pressure sensor valve
    • Flush valve
    • DISS (closes free floating valve- prevents gas from exiting the gas machine)
    • Second stage regulator (converts to low pressure 16psi
  • to gas flow manifold (flow meters)
  • Vaporizers
  • Common gas outlet
  • Down through soda lime container
  • Inspiratory valve
  • Inspiratory limb of circuit
  • endotracheal tube/ pts lips
