Q

What are some negative pressure vents?

A

Iron lung and Chest cuirass

21
Q

Define double circuited?

A

Ventilators that have 2 gas flows one to patient and one to machine. (1 limb)

22
Q

Define single circuited?

A

ventilators in which the gas supply that powers the machine is the same gas to the patient. (2 limbs)

23
Q

Define tubing compliance?

A

The amount of gas that is compressed in the circuit for every cmH2O generated during inspiration

24
Q

Define compressed volume?

A

Amount of volume lost in the circuit due to tubing compliance - volume varies depending in the type of circuit.

25
Q

Define internal resistance?

A

How well the flow pattern and pressure pattern can be maintained in the presence of back pressure

26
Q

What is the flow wave patterns?

A

Square- a constant, depending on internal resistance to determine if it changes with back pressure
Sine- gradually increase flow until mid-inspiration due to action of rotary piston
Accelerating- gradually accelerates to peak and levels off
Decaying- reaches peak flow immediately, then gradually decelerates (air-mix)

27
Q

What are the pressure patterns?

A

Reticular- due to square wave
Sigmoidal- due to sine wave
Exponential- due to accelerating wave
Parabolic- due to decaying

28
Q

What determines shape of a waveform?

A

internal resistance

29
Q

What are the alarms for ventilators?

A

O2 disconnect
high pressure/low pressure
high/low volume
fail to cycle
High/low PEEP
Time (I:E ratio)
Apnea

30
Q

Pressure patterns are determined by.

A

Flow patterns

31
Q

High/Low alarms indicate?

A

High alarms indicate- Obstruction /blockage
Low alarms indicate leaks/disconnect

32
Q

What type of alram is O2 disconnect?

A

Low alarm/ low pressure limit, peep/cpap

33
Q

What can cause low pressure alarms?

A

Disconnect, cuff leak, increased patient demand

34
Q

What can cause high pressure alarms?

A

Cough, Biting ETT tube, Fighting VENT, needs suctioning, or kinked ETT tube

35
Q

What can cause apnea alarm?

A

Disconnect or true apnea event (20 seconds)

36
Q

What causes I:E ratio alarms?

A

Duration of inspiration is 50% or > OF TCT

37
Q

When is low peep are activated?

A

Presence of leak in the patient ventilator circuit

38
Q

Define trigger?

A

What initiates the start of inspirations

39
Q

What controls the I:E ratio setting?

A

The respiratory rate

40
Q

What is the purpose of PEEP?

A

To keep the alveoli, open during expiratory phase to allow gas exchange

41
Q

What are the hazards of PEEP?

A

Air trapping and barotrauma

42
Q

What is control mode?

A

All WOB is taken over by ventilator
Sedation required
Useful with ARDS when inversed ratio is required
Pressure varies
Patient cannot trigger breath
Preset volume and rate

43
Q

What is A/C- V/C mode?

A

Constant preset volume
Pressure varies with each breath
Patient can trigger breath
Machine performs majority WOB
No spontaneous volumes
Sedatives administered to prevent hyperventilation

44
Q

What is SIMV mode?

A

Set VT and RR
pt. can breathe spontaneously between breaths
Weaning and short term

45
Q

What mode is PSV?

A

Delivers kick of pressure at the beginning of inspiration to help overcome increased resistance
Patient can trigger breath
Positive pressure set
Pt. can set own RR, VT, and flow
Used with CPAP and SIMV
Helps reduce WOB by ETT and tube

46
Q

What mode is CPAP?

A

Pt. control RR, VT, AND FLOW

47
Q

What mode is MMV?

A

Replaced by ASV Adaptive Support Ventilation

48
Q

What mode is BIPAP?

A

Similar to CPAP but applies high pressure during inspiration and lower pressure during exhalation
Obstructive sleep apnea
Severe air rapping

49
Q

Study advanced modes

A

Respiratory 230 (4 decks)
