55-60mmHg

23
Q

1st, 2nd and 3rd line treatment for exercise induced bronchospams

27
Q

Most common method of noninvasive positive pressure airway support

A

Intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV)

28
Q

MOA of inhaled anticholinergics

A

Antimuscarinic - inhibits muscarinic receptors –> inhibits parasympathetic –> bronchodilation

A

Increases

30

A

30

34
Q

35
Q

What must you avoid when taking methylxanthines?

A

Methylxanthines, such as theophylline, should not be taken with caffeine

36
Q

When changing from sitting to supine position, relation between venous and arterial pressure??

A

Venous pressure increases in relation to arterial pressure in gravity dependent areas

37
Q

What does BiPAP allow?

A

Adjusts inspiratory (IPAP) and expiratory (EPAP) components individually

A

Pursed lip breathing

43
Q

MOA of cromolyn

A

Inhibits release of histamine
