| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Cylinder Duration of flow | psig X Tank Factor / flow Full tank is 2200 psi |
| Dynamic Compliance | Exhaled volume/ PIP-PEEP |
| Static Compliance | Exhaled volume/Plateau-PEEP |
| Alveolar minute ventilation *Shortcut | lml per # of body weight (i.e. if someone weighs 110lb, it would be 110ml) |
| Suction Catheter Size ***Shortcut | Multiply the ID size x 2 and use next smallest Fr size cathether |
| Pulse Pressure | Systolic - Diastolic |
| Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) | (2 x Diastolic) + Systolic / 3 |
| Cardiac Output (CO) using stroke volume | Heart rate x stroke volume |
| Stroke Volume Equation | Cardiac Output (QT) / Heart Rate |
| Systemic Vascular Resistance (SVR) | (MAP-CVP) / CO |
| Conversion mm Hg/L/min to Dynes/sec/cm | Multiple mm Hg/L/min by 80 |
| Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR) | (MPAP- PWP) /CO |
| VD/VT | PaCO2-PECO2/PaCO2 x 100 |
| P(A-a)02 *Shortcut | (FIO2 x 7) - CO2 - PaCO2 |
| A-aDO2 **Shortcut | (FIO2 x7- CO2)-PaO2 |
| PAO2 **Shortcut | (FIO2 x 7)- PaCO2 |
| PaO2 **Shortcut | Estimate by subtracting 30 from SaO2 |
| I:E Ratio given both I time and E time are given | Divide both sides by the Inspiratory time. |
| Inspiratory Time | Total cycle time = 60/f or RR total cycle time/sum of I:E ratio parts |
| Ventilator Inspiratory Flow (VCV) ***Short cut | add the I:E parts and then multiply by the minute volume (you can then estimate) |
| mg/mL | 10 x % concentration |
