Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Respiratory mechanics that can be measured with the CareFusion AVEA include esophageal pressure measurement, peak inspiratory pressure/P100, inflection point, and auto-PEEP.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Sigh breaths are accomplished on the Drger EvitaXL ventilator by intermittently increasing the positive end-expiratory pressure level to the set sigh pressure for 2 consecutive breaths in the continuous mandatory ventilation mode.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
