PFT BOSS MODE
This value is obtained from subtracting ERV from FRC
What is residual volume?
this system is used to prevent misconnections on LARGE cylinders
what is ASSS
This type of sputum appears green, thick, and separates into layers
what is sputum from bronchiectasis
postural drainage should be held this long per segment
what is 3-15 minutes
The biggest complication of giving high flow to COPD patients
what is respiratory depression
This PFT measurement estimates muscle strength and cough ability ; the minimal acceptable value is -20 cmH20
What is MIP
a nonrebreather mask delivers about this FiO2 range
what is 60-80%
cyanosis does not reliably appear in this condition despite hypoxia
vibration should be applied during this phase of the respiratory cycle
what is exhalation
what is get rid of dust and debris
a "scooped out" appearance on a flow-volume loop suggests obstruction in these airways
what are the small airways
a faulty valve on a thorpe tube is suspected when this happens
what is the gas still flows when the flowmeter is "off"
a patient with a flail chest demonstrates this classic breathing pattern
paradoxical breathing
the PEP range typically used for therapy
what is 10-20 cmH20
this high flow device for children must be kept closed to prevent FiO2 fluctuations, and also has a hazard for CO2 retention
what is an oxygen tent
This test measures the evenness of gas distribution and has 4 phases, including closing volume
what is the single breath nitrogen washout test
these patients are at highest risk for ROP (retinopathy of prematurity)
Who are premature neonates receiving high oxygen?
this imaging technique uses strong magnetic fields and cannot be used with most metal devices
what is MRI
This therapy is NOT done if the patient has ICP > 20 mmHg
what is chest physiotherapy
the tank duration formula and what is an E tank factor
(psi) x tank factor (.28) / flow
this calculation determines whether an obstruction is reversible after a bronchodilator
what is a greater than 12% improvement in FEV1 (post-pre/post)x100
this formula is used to measure the gas remaining from a tank
(lbs) x 860 / 2.5
hypokalemia can cause this deadly ventricular rhythm
what is ventricular tachycardia
this device delivers rapid mini-tidal volumes to mobilize mucus and does not rely on therapist technique
what is intrapulmonary percussive ventilation (IPV)
this gas mixture is used for severe airway obstruction and flows through NRB with either a 80% mixture or 70% mixture
what is heliox
