Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
A. Correct response: The combination of a substantial mean airway pressure to maintain recruitment and the limited tidal pressure swings should lead to reductions in both overstretch and repetitive opening-closing stresses in the lungs. In other words, HFV support is applied between the overdistention and the derecruitment points of the injured lung's pressure-volume relationship, the presumed ideal mechanical range for positive-pressure ventilatory support.
B. Incorrect response: See explanation A.
C. Incorrect response: See explanation A.
D. Incorrect response: See explanation A.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
