Mechanical ventilation Flashcards
4 clinical conditions leading to mechanical ventilation?
- depressed resp drive
- excessive ventilator workload
- failure of ventilatory pump
- impending resp failure
Type I resp failure = decreased ____
PaO2
Type II resp failure = increase ____ and decreased _____
PaCO2; PaO2
2 types of mechanical ventilation?
- positive pressure
2. negative pressure
Pt is ________ in negative pressure ventilation
immobilized
In negative pressure ventilation, ________ _____ is applied to the outside of the chest wall
subatmospheric pressure
In negative pressure ventilation, chest wall _____ and air flows into lungs, closer to normal lung physiology
expands
In + pressure ventilation, pressurized air is _____ into the lungs
pushed
2 methods of + pressure ventilation?
- IPPV
2. NIPPV/ NIV
Mechanical ventilation _____ and ______ effects require monitoring
pulmonary; hemodynamic
5 pulmonary effects due to mechanical ventilation requiring monitoring?
- increased V/Q and dead space/ tidal volume ratio
- air trapping
- barotrauma
- pneumothorax / subcutaneous emphysema
- resp distress
4 hemodynamic effects due to mechanical ventilation requiring monitoring?
- decreased venous return
- decreased CO
- decreased BP
- decreased renal perfusion
Does prophylactic chest physio decrease incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP)?
NOPE
5 methods to reduce incidence of VAP?
- HOB elevation
- oral hygiene
- DVT and peptic ulcer prophylaxis
- daily sedation vacation
- reduced frequency of changing vent circuit
Less invasive method of ventilation is always preferred over more invasive (T/F)
TRUE
6 CI’s and precautions to NIC?
- facial trauma
- obstruction to upper airway
- hemodynamic instability and multiple organ failure
- decreased LOC
- undrained pneumothorax
- high risk of aspiration and vomiting
4 non invasive patient interfaces?
- face mask
- nasal mask
- nasal cannula
- full face mask
3 invasive patient interfaces?
- oral endotracheal tube
- nasal endotracheal tube
- tracheostomy
Most patients start with ______ _____ if on NIV
oronasal mask`
What is biggest factor in choosing type of NIV?
patient comfort
In IPPV, most adults are intubated with a _____ ____ ______ tube
cuffed oral endotracheal
Most frequent type of IPPV in infants ?
nasal endotracheal tubes
Is pt able to speak with endotracheal tube?
No
More sedation is required for tracheostomies than endotracheal tubes (T/F)
FALSE - opposite
Endotracheal tubes ____ dead space; tracheostomies _____ dead space
increase; decrease
6 control parameters in ventilation?
- pressure
- volume
- RR
- pressure support
- PEEP
- FiO2
You can only control pressure OR volume, not both (T/F)
TRUE
