B. 30
C. 40
D. 50
E. 60

A

30
Pack years is calculated by dividing the number of cigarettes smoked per day by 20 (no. of cigarettes in a pack) and multiplying by the number of years smoked.
(30/20) x 20 = 30

Q

A 38-year-old with exacerbation of asthma is too tired to do a peak flow.
Normal values: pH 7.37 – 7.43, PaO2 11 – 15 kPa, PaCO2 4.6 – 6.4 kPa

His blood gas results are most likely to be:

A.   pH 6.91,    PaO2 16.7 kPa,     PaCO2 2.9    kPa, on air

B.   pH 7.5,      PaO2 6.6   kPa,     PaCO2 11.2  kPa, on air

C.   pH 7.15,    PaO2 29.6 kPa,     PaCO2 10.6  kPa, on air

D.   pH 7.22,    PaO2 7.8   kPa,     PaCO2 8.6    kPa, on air
