Respiratory support Flashcards
options for oxygen delivery
nasal cannula
simple face mask
venturi mask
non-rebreather face mask
nasal cannula oxygen delivery
1-4L/min gives 24-44% oxygen
simple face mask oxygen delivery
5-8L/min so 40-60% oxygen
venturi mask oxygen delivery
24-60% oxygen
non-rebreather mask oxygen delivery
8-10L/min with 60-95% oxygen
venturi face mask colour
blue whales only yell red green
- Blue= 2L/min 24%
- White= 4L/min 28%
- Orange 6L/min with 31%
- Yellow 8L/min with 35%
- Red= 10L/min with 40%
- Green= 15L/min with 60%
two types of NIV?
BiPAP
CPAP
what is BiPAP?
cycle of high and low pressure to correspond to inspiration and expiration
IPAP is pressure during inspiration
EPAP is pressure during expiration
what is CPAP
continuous pressure to keep lungs expanded
what is ECMO?
blood is removed from the body where oxygen is added and CO2 is removed
common causes of respiratory acidosis
asthma
pneumonia
hypoventilation
common causes of metabolic acidosis
DKA
lactic acidosis
alcohol
salicylate toxicity
common causes of respiratory alkalosis
hyperventilation
panic attack
salicylate poisoning
common causes of metabolic alkalosis
severe vomiting
loss of potassium
salicylate poisoning ABGs
respiratory alkalosis > metabolic acidosis
