Q

Volume control - what is fixed and what is variable?

A

Tidal volume is fixed

Pressure becomes variable

24
Q

ARDS acts like ____________, only in the lungs

A

sepsis - leaky vessels, hyperinflammation

25
Q

A-a gradient >31 means what

A

O2 warranted

26
Q

Aspiration pneumonia typically doesn’t show up radiographically until ___________

A

12-36 hours post aspiration

27
Q

ARDS mortality rate in vet med

A

90-100%

yikes

28
Q

Spo2 of 95-96% correlates to what PaO2?

A

80mmhg

29
Q

Approx what % of minute volume is DEAD space?

A

35%

30
Q

Options to adjust for HIGH CO2
Rate?
Volume?
Peep?

A

Breathe off that CO2

  • Increase Rate
  • Increase Volume
  • Decrease PEEP
31

32
Q

Tidal volume setting calculation for ventilator cases

A

8-15ml/kg

33
Q

Minute volume calculation

A

Tidal Volume x Resp Rate

34
Q

Feline asthma has an increased effort on ______

A

exhalation (narrow bronch - hard to push past)

35
Q

Phase 3 of ARDS what happens?

A

Fibrosis of lungs

36
Q

Ventilator sensitivity refers to what?

When would you adjust?

A

How sensitive it is to picking up on a patient’s spont. breath

Don’t want it too sensitive or it will think mouth cleaning/PROM is a breath initiation

37
Q

Thoracic lavage fluid dosing

A

10-20ml/kg

38
Q

I:E ratio (ideal) and Inspiratory time

A

1:2, 1.2 seconds insp time

39
Q

Oxyhemoglobin diss. curve shift to the RIGHT causes what changes to Temp and pH

A

Gives O2 to the tissues (leaves Hgb)

  • Temp Rises
  • Low pH
40
Q

Phase 4 of ARDS what happens?

A

THEY DIE

41
Q

ALI vs ARDS criteria (PaO2/FiO2 ratio)

A

ALI <300

ARDS <200

42
Q

What concern do you have if you see beaking? What should you do?

A

Lung compliance is failing (lungs are stiffening - too much pressure)- turn down PIP

43
Q

PIP (inspiration press) should not exceed what?

A

20-25 cm H20 (just like giving a breath)

44
Q

Assist-control breaths

A

patient can start the breath but the machine ensures it’s a GOOD one

45
Q

End tidal in comparison to arterial

A

2-6mmhg LOWER than PaCO2

46
Q

Ventilator: two different control modes

A

Pressure

Volume

47
Q

NasoTRACHEAL measurement

A

thoracic inlet

48
Q

Nasal O2 rates

A

50-100ml/kg/min

Max 5-6L/min

49
Q

SpO2 of 98-100% correlates to what PaO2?

A

100-600mmhg

50
Q

A-a gradient interpretation

A

0-10 normal
11-20 questionable
21-30 O2 benefitial
>31 O2 indicated

51
Q

CPAP does what? Spontaneous or not?

A

keeps a PEEP - keeps the alveoli open

spontaneous

52
Q

Five Criteria for ARDS

AKIPI

A
  • acute
  • known risk factors
  • inflammation
  • pulmonary capillary leak
  • inefficient gas exchange
53
Q

What value should be changed in the A-a gradient calculation at different altitudes?
Example of Sea Level vs. Denver vs. Everest

A

Barometric pressure

  • Sea level is 760mmhg
  • Denver is 640 mmhg
  • Mount Everest is 247 mmhg
54
Q

Venous CO2 in comparison to arterial

A

Venous is typically 3-6mmhg HIGHER

55
Q

PaO2 should be approximately _____ times the FiO2

A

5 times
FiO2 is 21% –> PaO2 105

100% O2 –> PaO2 500

56
Q

Oxyhemoglobin diss. curve shift to the LEFT

A

Increased SaO2, tissues are LEFT behind

  • LOW temp
  • elevated pH
