18 Questions
Which ventilation pattern allows for patient-triggered breaths?
SIMV
Which inflation type is considered an assured (mandatory) inflation type?
VC
Which ventilation pattern involves both assured (mandatory) and support (spontaneous) inflations?
SIMV
Which adjunct modifies breath delivery by accounting for tube conditions?
Tube Compensation
Which inflation type description details the particular control parameters for the delivered inflations?
PC
Which ventilation pattern provides Continuous Spontaneous Ventilation?
CSV
What is the result of lung inflation or inhalation?
Increase in lung volume
How is a ventilator breath initiation detected in the pressure trigger method?
By changes in circuit pressure or air flow
Which component of the ventilator breath cycle is responsible for determining how a ventilator inspiratory phase is initiated?
Trigger
What does the Neural Trigger method for ventilator breaths involve detecting?
Diaphragmatic contraction
In pressure control inflations, what is the control parameter based on?
Pressure, flow, or time measured within each delivered breath
What is the result of exhalation in terms of lung volume?
Decrease in lung volume
What is the primary factor related to inspiratory plateau in Pressure Control?
Inspiratory Time
Which type of breath lacks conventional breath endpoint indicators?
Spontaneous support ventilator breaths
What factor can affect the shape of the Volume Control waveform?
Tidal Volume
Why are spontaneous support ventilator breaths not controlled by volume or time?
Due to deceleration of inspiratory flow
How can mandatory assured ventilator inflations be set to terminate?
When a specific volume is delivered
What triggers pressure cycling on a ventilator?
Reaching a specific airway pressure threshold
This quiz covers the different ventilation patterns used in respiratory therapy, such as A/C, SIMV, S/T, and CSV, as well as the specific types of inflations delivered within each pattern. Test your knowledge on how ventilation patterns dictate inflations for patient care.
