Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
HFOV can be used to improve oxygenation in patients with ARDS and at the same time can re-duce the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Some practitioners recommend initially setting Plow at 0 cm H2O; this setting allows an unimped-ed expiratory gas flow and a rapid drop in pressure.
