Modes Flashcards
Machine does all the work
Mandatory
Patient triggers breath, machine controls and ends the breath
Assisted
Patient triggers, controls, and ends breath. Machine augments breath.
Spontaneous
CMV=VCV=?
Volume Control
Full Support
CMV
Used for Flail Chest
CMV
CMV Trigger
Time
Should only be used if patient is medicated/sedated/depressants/neuro muscular blockers.
CMV
Important alarm for CMV
Low Pressure, Low Exhaled Volume
CMV Limit
Volume (flow or vol. cont)
CMV Cycle
Volume or Time
CMV Trigger
Time
I—>E Ends Inspiration and Starts Expiration
Cycle
Starts Inspiration
Jesus… and Trigger.
CMV Therapist Controls
Flow
I-time
Volume
Rate (min and max)
CMV Patient Control
NONE
CMV comp/resis
Peak Pressure
What is the Limit Insp. for all Volume controlled ventilation?
Volume target (flow or volume content)
A/C
Volume Assist Control
A/C Trigger
Time or Patient
A/C limit insp.
Volume Target (flow or vol cont.)
What is the cycle for ALL Volume Control Ventilation?
Volume or Time
Assist Control =
A/C, VC-AC
A/C Patient Variable
Max Rate
What Two Modes have no spontaneous breaths?
CMV and A/C
according to the chart she handed
How does the patient tolerate if they are awake in A/C mode?
Poorly Tolerated
What may happen if you use A/C mode on a patient with COPD
Air Trapping
What will happen with patients who have a rapid drive to breathe in A/C mode?
They may hyperventilate
Which of the following are Common Causes of Rapid Drive to breathe?
I. Metabolic Acidosis II. Anxiety III. Stress IV. Irritable Bowel V. Hypoxemia VI. Pain VII. Inappropriate Vent Settings
All of them except IV
If patient starts to show signs of a rapid drive on A/C ventilation what would be two things you could do?
Switch to SIMV or sedate the patient
In A/C what does the patient have a guarantee of?
Minute rate.
Or its money back… That wasn’t funny
In A/C mode what does the patient determine
Maximum
How would you want to set the rate on A/C?
2 < patient Rate
Full Support on a Vent will do what to a patients WOB
Decrease it
A/C trigger settings
Operator sets trigger Sensitivity
Must have proper trigger setting
A/C What will vary with change in compliance and resistance
Pressure
A/C if flow is not set properly what will happen to pt’s WOB
Increase
A/C why is volume constant?
Because flow and I time are constant
IMV =
Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation
TRUE OR FALSE!
IMV is spontaneous and mechanical breathing?
TRUE
IMV trigger on mechanical
Time
IMV trigger on Spontaneous
Patient
IMV Limit Insp. Mechanical
Volume (flow)
IMV Limit Insp. Spontaneous
None
IMV (S) Therapist Control
Sensitivity for trigger of spontaneous breaths
IMV (M) Cycle
VOLUME OR TIME
IMV (S) Cycle
FLOW
In Spontaneous breaths what will be the cycle?
Flow (if demanded)
What Three Volume Modes have Spontaneous breaths?
IMV
SIMV
SIMV/PSV
Whats the old term she put in her PPT that describes the machine shooting more breath into a patients lung before they exhaled the last one that isn’t used anymore?!
Breath Stacking
How was breath stacking resolved?
SIMV
IMV (S) Patient Control
Flow
Volume
I Time
Spontaneous Rate
IMV (M) Patient Variable
NONE
IMV (M) COMP/RESIS
Peak Pressure
