    Study Notes

    Thoracic Compliance

    • Calculated as Tidal Volume / (Plateu pressure - PEEP)

    Work of Breathing on Ventilator

    • More with Pressure triggering

    Blood Gas Analyzer Standby Mode

    • Saves both current and chemicals

    Mechanical Ventilator EST

    • Performed each time before applying on a new patient
    • Also done during servicing

    Computer Keyboard and Mouse

    • Act as input devices

    Window Operating System

    • None of the listed options are correct (memory driven, AC driven, voltage driven)

    Reference Electrode in Blood Gas Analyzer

    • A cathode

    Oxygen Concentrator

    • Better applied at home

    ICU Room Disinfection

    • May be done using Ozone gas, UV Germicidal light, or a combination of both

    Stochastic Signal

    • Example: ECG in multi-channel monitor

    NRBM Valve

    • One way

    Transport Ventilator FIO2

    • Achieved by regulation of O2 flow at the source and by using a blender
