    Study Notes

    Anesthesiology VV - ARDS

    • ARDS timing: within 2 weeks of a known clinical insult (1 week)
    • Abdominal sepsis can be a cause of ARDS (true)
    • Tidal volume adjustment: based on patient weight (5ml/kg) is true
    • ARDS includes lung edema and increased permeability of alveolar capillary membrane (true)
    • COVID-19 pneumonia pathophysiology is somewhat similar to ARDS, but not identical (false)
    • ARDS reduces respiratory system compliance (true)
    • Lung edema due to increased capillary hydrostatic pressure is generally not a feature of ARDS (true)
    • Prone position:
      • Not effective only in COVID-19 pneumonia (false)
      • Not typically considered for PaO2/FiO2 values > 150 mmHg (false)
      • Can often improve hypoxemia, though mechanism isn't fully understood (true)
      • Widely used worldwide (true)
      • Redistributes lung densities toward dependent lung regions (true)
    • PEЕР application in severe ARDS:
      • Always indicated (generally, but specifics depend on the patient) (true)
      • Dependent on lung density distribution (true)
      • Should ideally be based on potential for lung recruitment (true)
      • Should not exceed 10cmH2O (false)
      • May correct hypoxemia by reducing right-to-left shunting (true)

    Acid-base Equilibrium

    • Stewart's approach: pH is independently regulated by pCO2, A-, and SID (false. pCO2, strong acids/bases, and SID are related)
    • SID (strong ion difference) is the difference between strong cations and strong anions (true)
    • Hypoalbuminemia doesn't cause metabolic acidosis. Instead, it can cause metabolic alkalosis. (false)
    • Saline solution per se can lead to hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis (true)
    • Chloride excretion is higher in respiratory acidosis. (false)
    • Chloride excretion may increase to compensate for increased bicarbonate reabsorption (true)
    • pH is independent of volatile acids, PCO2, and bicarbonate. (false. It is inter-dependent)
    • SID is equal to the difference between anions and cations (false)
    • High pCO2 alone doesn't decrease bicarbonate (false. Increases it to compensate)
    • Ketoacidosis is not due to increased chloride. (false)
    • In respiratory acidosis: increased PaCO2 leads to increased bicarbonate to compensate
    • Kidneys increase chloride excretion in chronic respiratory acidosis. (true)
    • pH is not generally higher than 7.45 (false)

    Potassium Metabolism and Balance

    • Daily potassium requirement is about 2-4 mmol/kg (true)
    • Plasma K+ level > 5.5 mmol/L may not always show ECG alterations (false)
    • K+ supplementation in DKA patients should start only when K+ concentration is > 3.5 mmol/L (false)
    • Rhabdomyolysis is associated with severe hyperkalemia (true)
