Answer to Question 1

ANS: DI. Incorrect response: Control circuits can be fluidic, not compressors. Fluidic circuits are analogs of electronic logic circuits. Fluidic circuits use small amounts of gas flow to generate signals that operate timing systems and pressure switches.
II. Correct response: Piston and cylinder is one of three types of small compressors used inside certain ventilators.
III. Correct response: Turbine compressors are another type of compressor used inside some ventilators.
IV. Correct response: Bellows compressors are a third type of compressor housed inside some older-generation ventilators.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: CA. Incorrect response: Volume controlled-continuous mandatory ventilation (VC-CMV) cannot be pressure-controlled. In pressure-controlled, continuous mandatory ventilation (PC-CMV), pressure is the control variable, which implies that both spontaneous and mandatory breaths are available. Pressure control also implies that the mandatory breaths are either pressure-triggered (patient-cycled) or time-triggered.
B. Incorrect response: VC-CMV is volume-controlled and may be either pressure- or time-triggered. Pressure is not a limit variable, and the cycle variable is not flow.
C. Correct response: VC-CMV is (1) volume-controlled; (2) either pressure- or time-triggered, (3) flow-limited, and (4) time-cycled.
D. Incorrect response: VC-CMV is not pressure-cycled.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

Over time, chronic hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infections can progress to advanced liver disease, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Unlike other forms, more than 80% of hepatitis C infections become chronic and lead to liver disease. When combined with hepatitis B, hepatitis C now accounts for 75% percent of all cases of liver disease around the world. Liver failure caused by hepatitis C is now leading cause of liver transplants in the United States.
