Module 3 Manual Ventilation Flashcards
What is VAP?
A acquired disease from a ventilator
How do we know the tubes/lines are in the right place?
If the chest or stomach rises
Why would you push against the cicrothryoid ligament?
to collapse the esophagus
What indicator is there when the endotrachial tube is too deep?
The right lung/side rises more than the left.
Why do you want to keep 5cm of PEEP?
To keep lungs/airways/alveoli open.
3 important factors for humidity
Edit
Ensure proper temperature control, maintain adequate humidity levels, and adhere to device maintenance and sterilization protocols.
- humidity level is important to ensure that airways don’t get irritated
- Adequate humidity levels help prevent the drying out of mucous membranes, reduce airway irritation, and improve mucus clearance. Insufficient humidity can lead to dry, crusted secretions and increased airway resistance.
BLS Basics
2 types of respiratory failure
Type 1: oxygenation
Type 2: ventilation
6 Procedure steps when bagging (the process)
- Assess…alertness
- Position
- Assess…airway for patency
- Consider…oral or nasal airway
- Bag
- Consider…intubation
Which inhalers are short acting and which reduce inflammation
Ventolin (open airways)
flovent falls into the beta agonist group (corticosteroid) to reduce inflammation
VSD vs Asthma…when can a person be taken off of puffers (for VSD)
Vocal chords shut causing us to hear strider
what can help elevate a exasbaration (sob) when there is CHF
CPAP can help relieve exasbaration temporarily so that we can figure out what is happening.
Causes for: (7)
Hypoxemia Respiratory Failure Type 1
When things block oxygen from getting to blood.
- V/Q mismatch
- Shunt
- Alveolar Hypoventilation
- Diffusion Impairment
5 Perfusion/diffusion impairment - Decreased inspired O2
- Venous admixture
Cause of:
Hypercapnic Respiratory failure (Type II)
Impaired Resp. Control
Neurological disease
Increase WOB
5 Therapy/treatment for Type 1 heart failure?
What are the most effective
Increasing FiO2 and PEEP are the most effective therapy methods.
FiO2 increases MAP - how does PEEP get involved?
TLDR; oxygenation
Treatment/therapy methods for Type 2 Failure?
you manage MV - manipulate rate or Vt.
Vt
Rate
MV
pH
PaCO2
TLDR: Ventilation
Peak pressure must not exceed
(refer to slide 29)
30mmhg
what about Vt? (5-8)
humidity (no greater than 37)
MR. SOPA mnemonic
M - mask
R - reposition
S - suction
O - obstruction
P - pressure
A - airway equipment
PaCO2 greater than what value indicates that the patient needs ventilatory support ?
55
Inadequate lung expansion value for Vt?
less than 5
Inadequate lung expansion value for vital capacity
less than 10
Normal vital capacity = 65-75
Inadequate lung expansion value for RR?
greater than 35
Inadequate muscle strength that indicates ventilatory support
edit later
-Increased WOB
-Maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) greater than or equal to -20 (its normally a small number)
VC is needed for a good cough
-Normal VD = 2.2 ml/Kg
Minute ventilation (MV) = 100m x Kg increase due to amount of deadspace ventilation (swapping the use of negative pressure to positive pressure bc forcing air in)
Vt = 5-8ml/kg
= 6 (80 (bw)) = 480ml
= 8000/480ml = RR
->8000 = Mv (100 * kg)
MV is equal to what?
Aka how do you calculate
Vt x RR?
