Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
A. Incorrect response: See explanation D.
B. Incorrect response: See explanation D.
C. Incorrect response: See explanation D.
D. Correct response: Both pressure-regulated volume control (PR-VC) and proportional assist ventilation (PAV) use pressure-controlled breaths to calculate respiratory system mechanics. These calculations are used for monitoring ventilation or are incorporated into various feedback algorithms.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
A. Correct response: Flow is integrated by pneumotachometers to obtain volume.
B. Incorrect response: See explanation A.
C. Incorrect response: See explanation A.
D. Incorrect response: See explanation A.
