Hall Flashcards
What is the driving force of a ventilator?
Compressed oxygen
Continuous wave Doppler is good for measuring:
High frequency shifts…ie aortic stenosis
Pulsed Doppler is good for measuring:
Low velocities from a specific region
Vapor pressure of liquid N2O
When does the psi drop?
750 psi…starts to drop after 3/4 of the e-tank is empty (contains 1590L when full)
Deadly orange is pressurized at
Vapor pressure is 664mmhg
Pressurized to 1500mmhg and temp 23 C
Test for low pressure circuit
Negative pressure test
Second stage pressure regulator reduce pressure to:
14-16 psi
NIOSH limits on N2O
Less than 25 ppm; less than 50 ppm if no anesthetic gases are in the facility (dental clinic)
Modified Bernoulli equation:
⚠️p= 4v^2
Pacer meanings
Paced Sensed Response Rate modification Multi site pacing
Maximum allowable leak of electric current through electrodes or catheters in contact with the heart
10 micro amps…a fib can occur at 100 micro amps
