Resp 2.8 II
BiPAP study guide
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The IPAP will always be | Higher than the EPAP |
| On CPAP what will pressure do | be constant during inhalation and exhalation |
| If you have ventilation problems you adjust | IPAP |
| If you have oxygenation problems you adjust | EPAP |
| What do you set on spontaneous mode | EPAP and IPAP only |
| what do you set on timed mode | IPAP, EPAP, BPM, and % IPAP |
| What is the purpose of an BiPAP | to augment pt ventilation by supplying pressurized air through a mask |
| The pt's effort and difference btween IPAP and EPAP determine | Tidal volume |
| The time intervals on TIME mode are determined | by RR and insp time (% IPAP) controls The pt can take their own breaths over the timed ones |
| IPAP control | 4-40 |
| EPAP control | 4-20 |
| Rate control | 4-40 |
| CPAP control | 4-20 |
| Timed insp | 0.5-3.0 seconds |
| IPAP rise time | .05-.40 seconds |
| oxygen % | 21-100 |
| If pt is hypoxemic | increase the level of EPAP |
| If the pt has increased CO2 | adjust the IPAP to create pressure difference between IPAP and EPAP |
| Typical initial setting of EPAP | 3-5 |
| Typical initial setting of IPAP | 8-12 |
| Which mask improves the tidal volume the most | full face mask |
