Q

Same as CMV

A

ACV, AC
*allows pt to trigger breath
—> if pt triggered, preset TV assured

Q

SIMV

A

IMV but if pt triggers, will allow pt breath

*prevents stacking

16
Q

Minute ventilation

A

TV x RR = MV

17
Q

Sensitivity

A

Trigger

  • inspiratory flow created on own vs. when machine should trigger (are they making an effort? Low tidal volume)
  • PC or VC
18
Q

Default sensitivity

A

10%

19
Q

~ normal inspiratory flow

A

4xMV
60-75 L/min
> 75 = barotrauma

20
Q

PEEP

A

Airway pressure at end expiration (point D on ETCO2 waveform)

21
Q

Optimal PEEP

A

Point of maximal alveolar recruitment (MAR)

-if PIP > PEEP, MAR exceeded

22
Q

AE PEEP

A

Barotrauma, decr. CO

23
Q

Effect of PEEP on CO

A

Increases intrathoracic pressure —> increased RAP, decreased preload
Increases PAP —> impedes RV output, RV dilates/goes into LV—> dec. LV —> dec. CO/BP

24
Q

If PEEP >5 cm H2O

A

Subtract 1/2 PEEP > 5 from PCWP/CVP

25
Q

PSV

A

Patient triggers breath, preset pressure

26
Q

PCV

A

Pt receives breath that ceases at max pressure (pressure set on machine)
