While the therapist provides HFJV to a neonate, which of the following factors serve as the basis for establishing ventilator settings? I. peak and airway pressure monitoring II. arterial blood gas data III. capnography data IV. visual inspection of the neonate's thorax
 
  A. I, II only
  B. II, III only
  C. I, II, III only
  D. I, II, IV only

Question 2

  A. Disconnect the INOvent from the Y-piece in the inspiratory breathing circuit before turning on the flowmeter.
  B. Turn off the following alarms before setting the O2 flow and the injector: loss of gas pressure, calibration required, and delivery system failure.
  C. Set an O2 flow of 15 L/minute and squeeze the bag four times to clear residual NO2.

Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
A. Incorrect response: See explanation D.
B. Incorrect response: See explanation D.
C. Incorrect response: See explanation D.
D. Correct response: Ventilation settings used with jet ventilators are usually established according to peak and mean airway pressure monitoring, visual inspection of chest movement, and arterial blood gas data.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
A. Incorrect response: See explanation C.
B. Incorrect response: See explanation C.
C. Correct response: A manual NO delivery system is provided by the INOvent delivery system. With an O2 flow to the manual ventilator set at 15 L/minute, INOvent injects gas to provide an NO concentration of 20 ppm. As with any manual ventilator system for NO, the bag should be squeezed three to five times to clear residual NO2 before the ventilator is attached to the patient.
D. Incorrect response: See explanation C.
