Enter the following settings: VC/AC, VT 0.400 , RR 14 , Flow 55 , PEEP 5 , FiO2 0.40 (actually set 0.21 ). Set appropriate alarms. ABG: pH 7.33, PaCO2 48, HCO3 24, PaO2 70, PB 755, EtCO2 42. A. Locate and Identify the 3 scalar waveforms on your ventilator. B. Locate the 2 Loops on your ventilator. C. Interpret the ABG. D. What changes should you make on the ventilator? (make the changes and adjust any alarms) D. Calculate AND interpret: i. P/F: ii. iii. VD/VT (deadspace) iv. QS/QT (shunt) v. Raw vi. Cstat 2. Enter the following settings: PC/AC, IP 20, RR 12, I.T. 1.0sec, PEEP 5, FiO2 0.80. Set appropriate alarms. ABG: pH 7.35, PaCO2 45, HCO3 31, PaO2 32, PB 760, EtCO2 38. A. Locate the pressure vs time waveform. According to this waveform: i. What is the PIP ii. What is the Pplat when doing a breath hold? iii. What is the baseline pressure? B. Locate the flow vs time waveform. Identify: i. The inhalation portion of the breath ii. The exhalation portion of the breath iii. Is the shape of the waveform square, accelerating or decelerating? C. Interpret the ABG. D. What changes should you make on the ventilator? (make the changes and adjust any alarms) E. Calculate and interpret: i. P/F: ii.
