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: Ventilation settings used with jet ventilators are usually established according to peak and mean airway pressure monitoring, visual inspection of chest movement, and arterial blood gas data.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
A. Incorrect response: See explanation C.
B. Incorrect response: See explanation C.
C. Correct response: A manual NO delivery system is provided by the INOvent delivery system. With an O2 flow to the manual ventilator set at 15 L/minute, INOvent injects gas to provide an NO concentration of 20 ppm. As with any manual ventilator system for NO, the bag should be squeezed three to five times to clear residual NO2 before the ventilator is attached to the patient.
D. Incorrect response: See explanation C.
