Q

what is the formula for tidal volume

A

-Based off of ideal body weight.
-6-8 ml/kg normally

Q

what is the target minute ventilation formula, and breaths/minute to maintain that formula.

A

100 ml/kg/min 80 kg pt

100 x 80 = 8000 ml/min
tidal volume is 80 x 6 ml/kg = 480 ml

8000/480= 16.6 breaths/min

26
Q

how do you determine alveolar minute ventilation

A

Delivered minute ventilation - anatomical dead space.

27
Q

How do you count for mechanical dead space.

A

-2ml x PIP for adults
-1ml x PIP for peds

28
Q

what is the adults average tidal volume

A

5 L/min

29
Q

How do you figure inspiratory time for the vent

A

-60 sec / Respirations = breath cycle. (60/10= 6 sec cycle)
-add your I:E together (1:3 =4)
breathing cycle / I:E total
6/4= 1.5 sec is your inspiratory time

30
Q

how do you figure your expiratory time for the vent

A

-take your inspiratory time and times it by the remainder of your I:E.
- Inp time is 1.5 sec. I:E is 1:3
-1.5 x 3= 4.5 is your expiratory time

31
Q

What is PIP on the vent

A

-a reflection of airway resistance
-should remain <35 cmH2O

32
Q

what is Pplat on the vent

A

-used to determine alveolar health
- <30 cmH2O is the goal

33
Q

what is driving pressure on the vent? what is it used for.

A

-the difference between Pplat and PEEP.
-attempt to keep <15 cm H2O
-used for ARDS pt’s

34
Q

how do we set up pressure mode on vent

A

-set based on inspiratory pressure (PIP)
-adult- 20 cmH2O
-peds- 10-15 cmH2O

35
Q

what is Waddell’s triad

A

Common when a child is struck by a motor vehicle, injuries include those to the head, trunk, and extremities.

36
Q

Why do we give prostaglandin (PGE1)

A

to keep the patent ductus arteriosus open

37
Q

what do we give to close the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)

A

Indomethacin

38
Q

what is the left to right shunt defects

A

oxygenated blood shifts from the left to the right side of the heart

39
Q

what is Atrial Septal Defect (ASD)

A

when the foramen ovale doesn’t close like it should.

40
Q

what is Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD)

A

a defect in the septum between the ventricles that allows blood to flow between them.

41
Q

what is Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA)

A

failure of the ductus arteriosus to close after pulmonary circulation has been established.

42
Q

what is Mauriceu’s maneuver

A

-as the baby is being born you place the index finger and the middle finger over the maxillary prominence on either side of the nose.
- this is done to provide flexion while traction is made on the shoulders.

43
Q

how to determine BP in neonate/pediatrics

A

-gestational age in weeks= neonate MAP
-peds- 70+(2xage in yrs) is normal
<70+(2xage in yrs) is hypotension

A

75-80 ml/kg

49

A

2 cc/kg of D25

51

what is the cardioversion rate for neonate/pediatric

A

0.5-1.0 joules/kg

53
Q

how much do we defibrillate a neonate/pediatric

A

2-4 joules/kg

54
Q

how to determine maintenance fluids for pediatrics

A

4-2-1 rule
-4cc/kg/hr for the 1st 10 kg
-2cc/kg/hr for the 2nd 10 kg
-1cc/kg/hr for every kg after that

55

baby born prior to 37 weeks

57
Q

what is a normal blood glucose for a neonate

A

> 40 mg/dl

58
Q

how to treat hypoglycemia in a neonate

A

administer D10 to get glucose >4 mg/dl

59
Q

what is choanal atresia

A

a bony or membranous occlusion that blocks the passageway between the nose and pharynx

where do you park at a hazard material scene

A

at least 100 ft uphill and upwind

61
