Initial Settings Flashcards
what are the goals for choosing a type of ventilator and mode
airway mgmt
ventilation
oxygenation disturbance
non-invasive accomplished in 3 ways
NPV
CPAP
NPPV
where is negative pressure ventilators most often used
used in home and for long term
where does negative pressure ventilation pressure go
across chest wall
what must be stable in patients who use negative pressure ventilation
compliance and resistance , airway protection, ability to swallow
why is negative pressure ventilation not good for acute exacerbation of COPD
they can have changes with compliance and resistance
is negative pressure ventilation good for obstructive sleep apnea
no
what are some negative pressure ventilation disadvantages
pt access difficult may cause tank shock no spontaneous breathing no control hot and noisy
where do set the rate for negative pressure ventilaiton
set 5-10 below patients rate
where do you increase negative pressure till
till patient can’t talk
why is it good that a patient can’t talk when ventilating with negative pressure
means there is enough flow to the patient
what is the max pressure that can be achieved with negative pressure ventilaiton
35
what do you use to measure volume with negative pressure ventilation
spirometer
how do you increase volume with negative pressure ventialton
increase pressure or I time
what are some hazards of an iron lung
abdominal pooling
large and in the way for nursing
what is a benefit to using a chest curaiss
eliminates abdominal pooling
why are chest cuirasses difficult to use
difficult to maintain a seal
where does a chest cuirass apply pressure
applies negative pressure to thorax
what are the indications for NIV/NPPV
pts with acute on chronic respiratory failure who require short term ventilation
terminally ill pts
pts who tolerate nasal/mask long term
pts with acute resp failure
when is bipap mostly used
patients with CHF
when do you not use NPPV/NIV
severe acidosis
shock bp <90 mmhg
uncontrolled arrhythmias
upper airway obstruction/trauma
NPPV for chronic RF
chest wall deformities
neuromuscular disorders
central alveolar hypoventilation
COPD
what does NPPV cause
gastric distention, skin pressure sores, facial pain, dry nose, eye irritation, poor sleep, and discomfort
what is the overall goal of ventilation
support the minute ventilation in order to meet the oxygen need
what is full ventilatory support
all work is coming from the machine, even if pt is doing something it isn’t good enough to not be in FVS
what is partial ventilatory support
weaning, lower amount that machine does
