which of the following should be excluded in an evaluation of a pt's ability to learn
self administration medication by MDI
a)manual dexterity
b)level of dementia
c)visual ability
d)language skills - Correct answer-c)visual ablilty
While performing manual ventilation with a self-inflating resuscitator bag through
a properly placed endotracheal tube, a respiratory therapist observes no chest rise.
To troubleshoot the problem, the therapist should?
A. assure the large bore reservoir tubing is connected.
B. adjust the PEEP valve
C. increase the flowrate.

,D. check for proper function of the air inlet valve - Correct answer-D) check for
proper function of the air Intel valve.
The scenario suggests that the ET tube is properly placed, therefore the problem
must be in the resuscitator. When the therapist squeezes the device, the air is not
being delivered to the patient, which is why there is no chest rise.
Which of the following equipment is required to determine VD/VT ratio on a
patient receiving mechanical ventilation?
A. capnograph
B. pressure differential pneumotachometer
C. Fleisch pneumotachometer
D. EZ® cap CO2 detector - Correct answer-A) capnography
This question is largely about memorization. You must know what it takes to
calculate of the VD/VT ratio. Of the equipment listed only a capnograph would be
helpful because it relates end tidal CO2.

,For a patient with severe mitral-valve stenosis, a balloon-tipped flow-directed
pulmonary artery catheter would be associated with which of the following clinical
data?
A. PAP 19 mm Hg and PCWP 7 mmHg
B. PAP 25/8 mmHg
C. PCWP 14 mm Hg and C.O. 4 L/M
D. CVP 9 mm Hg and PAP 9 mmHg - Correct answer-c) PCWP 12 and CO 4
Mitral valve stenosis is a problem resulting from left heart failure. Problems in the
left heart are manifested hemodynamically with high pulmonary capillary wedge
pressure (PCWP) and low or normal cardiac output.
A 38-week gestational age infant is to receive oxygen therapy by a blender set at
100% with a heated large-volume nebulizer. To ensure the delivery of the ordered
FIO2, the respiratory therapist should properly set the nebulizer FIO2 to

, A. 100%
B. 21%
C. 0%
D. 50% - Correct answer-A) 100%
When using an air-oxygen blender, oxygen percentage is predetermined prior to
entering the large volume nebulizer device. When this happens, the large volume
nebulizer should be set at 100% in order to avoid entraining additional room air
and lowering FIO2.
A respiratory therapist is asked to assist in the development of a teaching plan for a
7-year-old asthmatic patient at home. The plan should avoid instructions regarding
