Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The display on the user interface of the Covidien PB 840 includes the expired minute volume, peak inspiratory pressure, rapid shallow breathing index, static compliance, and intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Volume support is pressure support ventilation with a volume target. In volume support, breaths are patient triggered (pressure or flow), pressure limited, and flow cycled. The ventilator auto-matically adjusts the pressure limit to achieve the set tidal volume.
