Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
A limiting variable has a maximum value that cannot be exceeded during inspiration because the ventilator does not allow it; however, reaching the limit does not end inspiratory flow to the pa-tient.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
During pressure-targeted ventilation, volume delivery varies with the set inspiratory time and the patient's lung characteristics. When the patient's lung compliance is decreased, the lungs are stiff, and less volume is delivered for the same amount of pressure.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
