FCCN Level 2 /192 Questions With CompleteSolutions Rated (A+)
Quiz :PaO2 - Answer :partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood, obtained using
an ABG
80-100mmHG
PaO2 60=SpO2 90%
Quiz :SpO2 - Answer :saturation of peripheral oxygen, obtained using pulse ox
90-100%
SpO2 90%=PaO2 60
Quiz :PaCO2 - Answer :35-45
Quiz :respiratory acidosis - Answer :low pH, high CO2
causes: CNS depression from drugs such as sedation, injury, or disease
breathe too slow, retaining CO2
Quiz :respiratory alkalosis - Answer :high pH, low CO2
causes: pain, fever, sepsis
breathe too fast, not retaining enough CO2
Quiz :HCO3 - Answer :22-26
Quiz :metabolic acidosis - Answer :low pH, low HCO3
causes: diarrhea, DKA, hyperkalemia
Quiz :metabolic alkalosis - Answer :high pH, high HCO3
,causes: vomiting, suctioning, hypokalemia
Quiz :pH - Answer :7.35-7.45
Quiz :reading ABGs - Answer :1. evaluate pH to identify acidosis or alkalosis
2. match CO2 or HCO3 with pH state using ROME to determine respiratory or
metabolic
3. assess whether CO2 or HCO3 state is opposite of pH to determine if it is
uncompensated, partially compensated, fully compensated, or corrected
Quiz :non-invasive ventilation - Answer :CPAP/BiPAP
Quiz :CPAP - Answer :continuous positive airway pressure; provides inspiratory
pressure
Quiz :BiPAP - Answer :bilevel positive airway pressure; provides inspiratory and
expiratory pressure
Quiz :intubation - Answer :insertion of ETT into trachea
Quiz :RSI - Answer :administration of induction agent and neuromuscular
blockade agent simultaneously
Quiz :intubation kit medications - Answer :premeds - versed and fentanyl

order.
-evaluate whether pt has difficult airway
-verify equipment and PPE

-preoxygenate
Quiz :RN role during intubation - Answer :monitor pt vital signs especially O2
sats, administer medications, monitor time of intubation attempts, suctioning as
needed
Quiz :intubation process - Answer :-following sedation, bag mask ventilate the pt
-physician visualize ETT passing through cords
-anesthesia backup will be notified after 10 minutes or 2 attempts to secure the
airway
Quiz :post intubation care - Answer :-portable chest x-ray, ABGs

Quiz :ventilator settings - Answer :FiO2
Tidal Volume
Respiratory Rate
PEEP
Mode
Quiz :FiO2 - Answer :fraction of inspired oxygen; the concentration of oxygen in
the air we breathe
RA is 21%, maximum is 100%
lung protection FiO2 goal: maintain SpO2 target with FiO2 <60%
Quiz :PEEP - Answer :positive end-expiratory pressure, provides positive pressure
to airways during expiration and helps keep alveoli open
common mechanical ventilator setting in which airway pressure is maintained
above atmospheric pressure
