  2. Airway resistance
  3. Lung compliance
  4. Chest wall compliance
  a. 1 and 3 c. 2, 3, and 4

Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Because of the possibility of inadvertent positive end-expiratory pressure developing from the continuous flow present in the expiratory limb of the patient circuit during time-cycled, pres-sure-limited ventilation, a jet Venturi is incorporated into the exhalation manifold.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Changes in the patient's airway resistance, lung compliance, and chest wall compliance can alter the volume delivered to the patient. Lower volumes are delivered when airway resistance is high or lung and chest wall compliance are low.
