Question 1

Which setting on a ventilator would require a nursing intervention to improve the outcome for a 60-kg patient with acute lung injury (ALI)?
◦ Respiratory rate = 15 per minute, when the CO2 levels are elevated
◦ FiO2 = 0.30 or 30%
◦ Inspiratory:Expiratory ratio (I:E) = 1:2
◦ Tidal volume (VT) = 900 mL

Question 2

Which statement made by a new graduate nurse about invasive mechanical ventilation techniques is incorrect and requires additional teaching?
◦ "Assist control mode refers to the patient receiving a set total lung capacity (TLC), but the rate can be modified by the patient's own rate of breathing."
◦ "Continuous positive airway pressure will increase the residual capacity and keep the alveoli open. Rate and volume are controlled by the patient. This is one step in the weaning process."
◦ "Synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV) refers to the patient setting an independent rate but limited tidal volume based on the patient's own strength. A minimum rate is also used as a backup to prevent hypoventilation."
◦ "Total control mode controls both the rate and volume that are preset and delivered without the machine responding to any of the patient's own breaths."

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
