=(2.5 - 5.5)

Question 7

Pedi ETT sizing form Sizing hack

Answer 7

correct tube size by matching diameter of the child’s smallest finger

Question 8

depth of insertion of the distal tip for pediatric ET tubes

Answer 8

2-3 cm below the vocal cords b/c deeper insertion can result in mainstem intubation/ injury to the carina.

calculate alveolar volume,
minute volume,
alveolar minute volume?

Answer 9

= Tidal Volume - Dead Space
=RR x Tidal Volume
= Alveolar Volume x RR

C# to F:
F# to C:

Answer 16

= (C# -32) / 1.8
= (1.8 x F) + 32

Question 17

Cardiac Output:
Cardiac Output Formula:
Blood Pressure formula:

Answer 17

= amount of blood pumped by the heart in 1 min (70mL)
= SV x HR
= (SV x HR) x SVR

Question 18

Pulse pressure:
MAP:
CPP Cerebral Perfusion:

Answer 18

= SBP-DBP
= (PP/3) + DBP
= (MAP-ICP) + 10

Question 19

Cardiac Output:
Cardiac Output Formula:
Blood Pressure formula:

Answer 19

= amount of blood pumped by the heart in 1 min (70mL)
= SV x HR
= (SV x HR) x SVR

Question 20

Pulse pressure:
MAP:
CPP Cerebral Perfusion:

Answer 20

= SBP-DBP
= (PP/3) + DBP
= (MAP-ICP) + 10

Question 21

How to estimate PEDI ET tube size: Uncuffed
Cuffed

Answer 21

Uncuffed ET: (Age /4) + 4 OR (Age + 16) /4
Cuffed ET = (Age /4) + 3.5

(Blood vol/ loss) Pelvis:
Femur:
Humorous:

Answer 25

= 2-3Liters
= 1.5Liters per femur
= 750ml per humorous

Question 26

ETCO2 Lvs in head-injured intubated PT shouldn’t drop below:
When vent/ing a adult PT, each breath should have tidal volume of:

Answer 26

= 30 mmHg
= approximately 500mL

Question 27

(Wallace Rule of 9s) used only for:
Adult %s:
infants (0-1):
Form:

Answer 27

= burns >10%
= 1 genitals, 9 head thoracic & ABDMN, distal anterior (applies to other areas) arm 4 ½
= head 18, arm 9, legs 13.5, 18 front thoracic & ABDMN
= # of child -1 > take away from head then give to each leg (Applicable up 10y/o) For every year beyond age 1, subtract 1 from head / that # & add it evenly between the 2 legs.

Question 28

Rule of palm:

Answer 28

use of PT hand = 1% of BSA (burns <10%)

Question 29

!!!Parkland Burn Form for:
form:

Answer 29

= (BSA >20% only 2 & 3 degree burns)
= 4 mL x BSA x Weight (kg) = ½ 1st 8 Hrs & ½ next 16Hrs

Question 30

(Parkland Burn Form) EX: 32yo male found with 10% BSA 1st degree burns, 10% BSA 2nd degree burns, and 10% BSA 3rd degree burns. The patient is 110 pounds.
1. 4 mL x BSA x Weight (kg)
2. Total mL / 2 = (Amount to give for:
3. How many mL’s per hr?
4. How many gtts/min using a 10 gtt/mL IV drip set?
5. Know w/ formula:

Answer 30

1. 4mL X 20 (2nd + 3rd degree burns) X 50 (kg) = 4000 mL
2. 4000 mL / 2 = 2000 mL (Amount to give 1st 8 hours then next 16Hrs)
3. 2000 mL / 8 = 250 mL per/hour for 1st 8 hrs
4. 42 gtts/min
5. Pick closest option choice for gtts & Vol calculated. Use biggest bores& macro drips
