Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
With BiPAP, inspiratory positive airway pressure (IPAP or pressure-supported ventilation) and expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP or positive end expiratory pressure) are set.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Clinical studies have shown that compared with spontaneous breathing (including that occurring during synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation), PSV can result in a decreased respira-tory rate, increased tidal volume, reduced respiratory muscle activity, and decreased oxygen consumption.
