CAMATA FINAL (SAIT ACP) EXAM
QUIZZES & ANS!!
Best mode of patient transport >200km? Answer - fixed wing
As plane ascends, what happens to temp. and atmospheric pressure? Answer -
decrease in temp/atmospheric pressure
"physiological zone" Answer - sea level to approx. 10,000ft.
Atmosphere composition Answer - 78% Nitrogen , 21% Oxygen, 1% Others
Atmospheric pressure Answer - 760 mmHg
The pressure exerted against an object or a person by the atmosphere? Answer -
Barometric pressure
"Efficient zone" Answer - sea level to 10,000ft
"Deficient zone" Answer - 10,000 - 50,000ft - human body cannot tolerate
"Space equivalent zone" Answer - above 50,000ft
Armstrong's Line Answer - 63,000ft - 47mmHg pressure - boiling point is body
temperature = blood will boil
Pressure at 10,000ft Answer - 523 mmHg
Boyle's Law Answer - the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure if
the temperature remains constant
(P1V1 = P2V2)
Dalton's Law Answer - The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the
individual pressures (Ptotal= P1+P2+P3...)
Charles's Law Answer - volume of a gas is proportional to its absolute temperature
when pressure and mass are constant
Henry's Law Answer - amount of gas in a solution directly relates to the pressure the
gas has over the solution
