Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Trends provide clinicians with measured or calculated data related to ventilatory support over time.

ANS: A
PEEP elevates a patient's FRC and can help improve oxygenation by preventing collapse of al-veolar units that are made unstable by lack of surfactant or disease.
