1
Q

Bodies response to removal of carotid bodies

A

little change to ventilation at rest, response to hypoxia is lost and there is a 30% reduction in ventilatory response to CO2

PEEP effects (pulmonary)

A

prevent alveolar collapse, promote gas exchange, increases FRC, increases lung compliance, decreases intrapulmonary shunt, increases PaO2, increases dead space

Q

PEEP recommended for? not recommended? no evidence?

A

recommended for pulmonary edema, not recommended for localized lung disease (over-distends normal lung and redirects blood to diseased area, creating V/Q mismatch), no evidence that it increases incidence of ARDS, beneficial routinely, or decreases mediastinal bleeding

Q

shivering, mechanism and treatment

A

when preoptic region of hypothalamus is cooled, increases metabolic heat production up to 600%, increases O2 consumption and CO2 production, hypoxia inhibits shivering response, treatment with meperidine - decreases the shivering threshold
