28
Q

volatile agents effect on EEG

A

progressive depression at higher doses, burst suppression at 1.5 MAC

29
Q

IV anesthetic affect on EEG

42
Q

critical velocity =

A

reynolds numberviscosity / densityradius

43
Q

fixed-orifice flowmeters

A

channel gas thorugh narrowed conduit, narrowing increases resistance to flow dropping the pressure of the gas as it exits, velocity and pressure flowmeter

44
Q

variable orifice flowmeter

A

use drop in pressure across resistor to calculate flow but contain a flap that opens the diameter of the orifice at high flows and narrows at low flows

45
Q

Thorpe tube

A

constant pressure, variable orifice, bobbin stops rising or falling when pressure difference above and below equals weight

46
Q

A

when peak or plateau pressure reaches above set threshold

48
Q

continuing pressure alarm

A

when pressure is greater tha 10cm H2O for more than 15 seconds, signals that gas is unable to exit system and pressure is gradually building within, relief valve is stuck, oxygen flush activated, APL closed, scavenging system occluded

49
Q

low pressure alarm

A

when circuit doesn’t reach a min threshold within specific period of time

50
Q

airway fire steps

remove tracheal tube, stop flow of airway gases, remove any flammable material, pour saline

51
Q

line isolation system
