Equipment,11thEdition
byJ.M.CairoChapters1-15
,Description
The most clinically relevant respiratory care equipment textbook on the market, Mosby’s Respiratory Care
Equipment, 10th Edition employs a "how-to" approach that moves beyond technical descriptions of machinery.
Learn to identify equipment, understand how it works, and apply your knowledge to clinical practice with this
comprehensive overview of the equipment and techniques used by respiratory therapists to treat
cardiopulmonary dysfunction. The 10th edition includes updated information on the latest devices and
equipment, which are divided into clearly defined sections including: ventilators, transport, home-care, neonatal
and pediatric ventilators, and alternative ventilators. In addition, there’s a focus on specific ventilator
characteristics such as mode, monitors and displays, alarms and indicators, graphics, special features, and
troubleshooting for lesser-used ventilators.

MULTIPLECHOICE
1. Power is ameasure of which of the following?
a. Mechanicalenergy
b. Gravitationalpotential energy
c. The rate at which work is being performed
d. The rate at which atoms and molecules move
ANSWER: C
Poweris ameasure of the rateat which work is being performed.The formula P=W/J, whereW = watts
and 1 watt is equal to 1 J/s, expresses this. Joules are the international standard for expressing energy and
work.
PTS: 1 REF: Page 8
2. When effort produces a change in the position ofmatter:
a. work is performed.
b. it is known as ajoule.
c. mechanical power is created.
d. the lawofthe conservation ofenergyis being used.
ANSWER: A
Workis performedonly when effortoroutsideforces produce achangeintheposition ofmatter.

3. The unit used to express the force of 1 newton (N) acting on a1-kilogram (kg) object to moveit 1 meter
(m) is which of the following?
a. Watt c. Kilowatt
b. Joule d. Kinetic energy
ANSWER: B
Onejouleis equal to the force of 1 N acting on 1 kg.Awatt is equivalent to 1 J/s.Akilowatt issimply1000
W. Kineticenergyis energyan object possesses when it is inmotion.
