NR 341; Exam 1 Questions With Complete Solutions
"D" on the graph of ETCO2, measure ?
The goal for chest compressions ? What would the etco2
shows ?
The lower the lines are, then the more ? Correct Answers the
inhalation & exhalation of the co2
get to ROSC (return of spontaneous circulation ) & make the
cells byproduct (co2)
2-2.4inchs (5-6cm) = GOOD
less than 2inches (less than 5cm) = BAD
the more obstruction
Another word for ambu bag ?
What should ALWAYS be with you when you have this bag ?
Correct Answers bag valve mask
the mask!!!!!!!!!!!!!! w/out the mask, it is useless
Cessation of tidaling in the water seal chamber signals ? Correct
Answers lung re-expansion OR an obstruction w/in the system
Complications of PEEP ? Correct Answers ↓venous return
↑intrathoracic pressure
,damage to the alveoli
↓pre-load
hypertension
↑ICP
Continous bubbling in the water seal chamber indicates ?
Correct Answers an air leak in the system !
Dead space in the alveoli is ? Correct Answers Obstruction to
the pulmonary capillary
NO perfusion !
Describe bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP).
Is this invasive or non-invasive ?
The pt. must be able to ?
Indications ? Who will this be likely seen in ?
Contraindications ? Correct Answers provides two levels of
positive pressure support: higher inspiratory positive airway

noninvasive modality & is delivered through a tight-fitting face
mask, nasal mask, or nasal pillows.

breathe spontaneously & cooperate
, COPD pt's
HF pt's
acute respiratory failure pt's
pt's w/sleep apnea.
may also be used after extubation to prevent reintubation*** <--
mainly
--------------------------------------------------------
Contraindications -> shock, altered mental status, or ↑airway
secretions (risk of aspiration & the inability to remove the mask)
Describe continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP).
Is this invasive or non-invasive ?
Which pt'? Correct Answers pressure delivered continuously
during spontaneous breathing
non-invasive w/ mask, ET, or tracheal tube
prevents the pt's airway pressure from falling to zero
OSA
Describe rapid sequence intubation.
When is rapid sequence intubation NOT indicated ? Correct
Answers BOTH sedative & paralytic agent are given to
emergency airway pt.s (decrease aspiration, )
