What does IPPB stand for
Intermittent Positive Pressure Breathing
What parameters are directly controlled when giving IPPB?
Sensitivity, flow, pressure
When the air/oxygen mix is switched from 50% to 100%, what happens to the flow?
Decreases
IPPB devices end inspiration when a pre-set ___ is reached
Pressure
The sensitivity parameter controls:
The effort required to initiate inspiration
The flow parameter controls:
How fast the breath is delivered
The pressure parameter controls:
The maximum pressure delivered to the patient
Air trapping occurs when there is not enough time allowed for____
Exhalation
If a patient is struggling to initiate a breath you should adjust what parameter?
Sensitivity
All of the following findings would indicate the need to stop an IPPB treatment
