Answer to Question 1

B
Several pathophysiologic mechanisms operating simultaneously may lead to an increased ventilatory rate: stimulation of peripheral chemoreceptors (hypoxemia), decreased lung complianceincreased ventilatory rate relationship, stimulation of J receptors, pain, anxiety, or fever.

Answer to Question 2

B
Prior to the introduction of exogenous surfactant, pulmonary air leak syndromes commonly occurred in preterm neonates with RDS on mechanical ventilation.

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.
