Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The Percussionaire IPV-1 can deliver percussive pressure of 25 to 40 cm H2O.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Intrapulmonary percussive ventilation involves the delivery of high-frequency percussive breaths into the patient's airways instead of applying percussions to the outside of the chest wall as in standard chest physiotherapy techniques.
