Answer to Question 1

ANS: B

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
When volume-assured pressure support is selected from the synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation/continuous positive airway pressure/pressure support column, mandatory pres-sure-controlled breaths are delivered at a guaranteed volume.
