Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
A. Correct response: Transport ventilators used in prehospital care do not need (1) a variable Fio2, and (2) CPAP or a variety of ventilatory modes. Some studies have demonstrated that 95 of patients receiving prehospital ventilation during transport were apneic. Having demand flow valves adds size and weight to the ventilator, and can also increase gas consumption. Independent control knobs for Vt and respiratory rate should be available. Another important feature is the manual inhalation control, which is useful during auscultation of breath sounds to confirm proper ETT placement.
B. Incorrect response: See explanation A.
C. Incorrect response: See explanation A.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
A. Incorrect response: See explanation D.
B. Incorrect response: See explanation D.
C. Incorrect response: See explanation D.
D. Correct response: The following equipment is essential for intrahospital transport of a mechanically ventilated patient: (1) portable monitor (ECG, arterial blood pressure, pulmonary artery catheter, intracranial pressure, etc.), (2) portable ventilator or self-inflating bag, (3) airway maintenance (intubation equipment), (4) drug box, (5) infusion pumps, and (6) stethoscope.
