ICU Flashcards
decreased mm mass and protein synthesis. Insulin resistance w/in 5 days.
ICU Aquired Weakness ICUAW
early intervention and increased activity in ICU leads to…(2)
- decreased stay
2. better outcomes
with disuse, bone density changes occur after…
3-6 weeks
mm atrophy occurs in which mm first?
biggest and strongest
TF bone density and mm changes are likely to occur in the ICU
False. Usually short stay
primary cause for ICU care
hypoxia
inflated particle bed, reduces pressure on skin to reduce ulcer formation
clinitron
tachycardia =
bradycardia =
> 140 bpm
<60 bpm
Normal ejection fraction EF
60-65%
Hypotension BP
Hypertension BP
<60 mmHg
>200 mmHg
ventilator that does all the work
CMV constant mechanical ventilation
pt can take some breaths on their own, ventilator fills in to reach set rate/depth of breath
SiMV
ventilator suspended but not removed to see how pt does on their own
SBT spontaneous breathing trial
breathe out against a force. Balloon inflates before fully deflating
PEEP positive end expiratory pressure
constant amount of pressure throughout respiratory cycle. makes alveoli stay open longer. sleep apnea
CPAP constant positive airway pressure
normal room FiO2
can be increased up to
21%
60%
FiO2 increases _____ for every 1L of O2
4%
