Q

stage 2 induction

A

injectable anesthetic to yield unconscious state, can be masked with inhalant anesthetic, intubate prior to this, we monitor HR, RR, MM, CRT, pulse, CNS reflex

40
Q

reflective probe pulse ox can be placed

44
Q

Tidal volume

A

amount of air inhaled during one breath, monitored by chest movement or reservoir bag or respirometer
