Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
One of the primary reasons that patients poorly interact with the mechanical ventilator is a change in their clinical status. Excessive secretions, bronchospasm, and agitation are the most common and regularly seen causes of poor patient-ventilator interaction and issues that should be assessed at every patient-ventilator assessment.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
