Answer to Question 1

ANS: C

Answer to Question 2

ANS: CA. Correct response: Pneumatically powered ventilators operate via a 50 psig gas source and generally incorporate a high-pressure reducing regulator to reduce the high source pressure to a lower working pressure. The solenoid is electrically powered to perform certain ventilator functions, but electricity is not the power that is used to perform the work of ventilating the patient.
B. Incorrect response: Electrically powered ventilators employ alternating current of 110 to 115 volts. This electrical power is reduced and converted to direct current for the purpose of depositing air into the lungs of patients.
C. Incorrect response: A flow-controlled ventilator maintains a constant flow throughout the inspiratory phase despite changes in lung compliance and airway resistance.
D. Incorrect response: Open-loop ventilation refers to systems that are unintelligent and require the clinician to make ventilator adjustments when certain conditions change. Closed-loop systems are described as intelligent because they can sense a change in input, and respond accordingly to render a different output.

Did you know?

Bisphosphonates were first developed in the nineteenth century. They were first investigated for use in disorders of bone metabolism in the 1960s. They are now used clinically for the treatment of osteoporosis, Paget's disease, bone metastasis, multiple myeloma, and other conditions that feature bone fragility.

Did you know?

In the United States, congenital cytomegalovirus causes one child to become disabled almost every hour. CMV is the leading preventable viral cause of development disability in newborns. These disabilities include hearing or vision loss, and cerebral palsy.

Did you know?

Hyperthyroidism leads to an increased rate of metabolism and affects about 1% of women but only 0.1% of men. For most people, this increased metabolic rate causes the thyroid gland to become enlarged (known as a goiter).

Did you know?

Vaccines cause herd immunity. If the majority of people in a community have been vaccinated against a disease, an unvaccinated person is less likely to get the disease since others are less likely to become sick from it and spread the disease.
