Mr. small dick Pabalate's must know!!!! from his review on friday!!!!!! Flashcards
To get a group average in the anterior 2/3rds of the class!!!!
with the volume mode of a ventilator what do we need to set?
TV
RR
PEEP
Others less known are
peak flow
FiO2
when in volume mode we know you will always give that dialed in amount of Volume, but b/c of this what is sacrificed or varies in this mode
pressure
what does the Ventilation pattern look like in volume mode
saw tooth
What needs to be set or what can be changed in the pressure mode?
the amount of pressure
RR
other less known are:
Inspiratory pressure
I:E time
we know that when in pressure mode no matter what happens the pt will always always always get that set amount of pressure, since this occurs what is sacrificed or varies
volumes
what type of surgery would be ideal for using pressure mode? and why? (there are probally many but he specifically used one type as his main example)
laporoscopy procedures
b/c when they induce the peritonium(something), basically when they insulfate the abdomen it causes intraabdominal pressures to increase and elevate the diapraghm and cause inceased intrathoracic pressures, that make ventilation with volume alone difficult. and your TV can decrease.
What pressure can cause barotrauma
????? i dunno i think he said saty under 60 I will cont to look
What is the ventilatory wave form for pressure mode?
Square
What is volutrauma
ALVEOLI damage from the repetative expanding then streatching then expanding and streathcing of the lungs. this causes the alevoli to be in pain and swell and get thincker, as we know the thicker the membrane the worse diffusion. also the cell mediated response can cause ARDS.
It’s like the name says VOLUtrauma- too much voume.
think of it as if you went and did the worlds best streatch as dr. P did (which we are in no way as fine of a specimen as he) but we would be sore and ur muscles wouldn’t work well. the same thing happens in our lungs.
except for dr. p his alveoli would just multiple and grow extra alveoli b/c he is a badass
what is Barotrauma
the lung actually POPs, you develope MICRO tears, you cause actual damage to the lung it self.
this often occures from too much pressure and the lung just pops
it’s like over inflating a balloon too much pressure and pop goes the weasle
what is a concern with isolated pressure control ventilation, (not the fancy ones), just plain old PCV
there is no alarm for TV’s and too much volume can be easily given
an example of this if if you are using PCV on a LAP case and have the pressure on 45 to ensure proper TVs and SPO2 on this fat bastard and they deflate the abdomen and you are not watching they will continue to get that presure. which could take their 400 TV and make it 1200 and pop instant barotrauma
now u need to nig rig a chest tube with a 14 or 16g angio cath into their proximal mid clavicular chest to decompresses your ignorant mistake
what will alarm on the PCV mode say if they get too large of a TV since the TV alarm itself will not go off?
MV alarm
it will state High MV usually these are set at approx 10-12L/min (just a ball park figure he through out to us)
for ex of your pt has RR 8 and gets a TV of 250= 2,000mL/min or 2.0L/min not bad
if you all of a sudden deliver a TV of say 1400 ml to this pt then 11,200 mL/min =11.2 L/min a huge increase
Normal MV is around 5-10 L/min
what is MV
so what is MV if the pt is the following
O2 Sat 86%
TV 250 ml
I:E 1:2
RR 15 min
Pressue suport 22
PEEP 5
TV x RR
3,750 mL/min= 3.7 L/min
what does PCVVG mode stand for?
Pressure controlled ventilation volume guarentee
What does PCVVG mode do? what must be dialed in? why is it good or bad? what alarms may go off? when and why?
tell me all you know about it
You dial in the TV and RR and it will deliver that TV at the lowest possiable pressure needed to acheive that volume
this is great for Lap cases b/c it will prevent to large of TVs being given if abd is deflated thus protects the lungs from too much TV form too high set pressure!!!
iIf it can’t reach the TV with the max pressure set it will alarm 2 times, once to say pressure too high and once to say low TV
