Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The pressure support/volume-assured pressure support time limit control will time-cycle the nor-mally flow-cycled pressure support breath when there is a leak.

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.
