Questions and Correct Answers | Latest

1. Calculate the tubing compliance (CT) when the measured volume is 150 mL and the static

pressure is 53 cm H2O.

a. 0.003 mL/cm H2O

b. 0.35 cm H2O/mL

c. 2.8 mL/cm H2O

d. 7.95cm H2O/mL

→ -:- C 2.8 mL/cm H2O
→ Calculate tubing compliance (CT) by dividing measured volume by measured static
pressure.


2. When initially setting up a ventilator the plateau pressure (PPlateau) is measured at 47 cm

H2O with a set volume of 100 mL. After applying the ventilator to the patient, the average

peak pressure reached during volume delivery is 28 cm H2O. How much volume is lost in the

ventilator tubing?

a. 13 mL

b. 60 mL

c. 147 mL

d. 168 mL

→ -:- B 60 mL
Calculate tubing compliance (CT) by dividing measured volume by measured static pressure.

The amount of volume lost to the circuit equals the pressure reached during a tidal volume (VT)

delivery multiplied by the CT factor.




3. A 90kg patient was placed on a mechanical ventilator following a major thoracic surgery.

A square flow-generating volume ventilator was used with the following settings: peak flow =

60L/min, f=15, sensitivity = -1 cmH2O, FI2 = 0.4, and expiratory time = 3 seconds. What

was the delivered VT for this patient?

A. 600 mL

B. 800 mL

C. 900 mL

D. 1000 mL


→ -:- D. 1000 mL


4. A 31 year old male patient has a body surface area of 2.0 m2 and an IBW of 180lbs

(82kgs). Body temperature is 37° C. He is still under the effects of anesthesia following

surgery on his leg. He has no history of lung disease. What minute ventilation would be

appropriate as an initial setting?

a. 6 L/min

b. 7 L/min

c. 8 L/min

d. 9 L/min

→ -:- C. 8 L/min


5. Calculate the average tidal volume for a patient who has a minute ventilation of 10 L/min

with a respiratory rate (RR) of 12 bpm.

a. 120 mL

b. 833 mL

c. 1000 mL

d. 1200 mL

→ -:- B. 833 mL, Vt = Ve/f, 10/12


6. Calculate the inspiratory time (TI) when a ventilator is set at a tidal volume (VT) of 500 mL

and a constant flow rate of 30 L/min.

a. 0.6 second

b. 1 second

c. 1.5 seconds

d. 1.7 seconds

→ -:- B 1 second
TI = VT/VE (convert L/min to L/sec)




7. Calculate the inspiratory to expiratory (I:E) ratio when the inspiratory time is 0.5 seconds

and the respiratory rate is 30 bpm.

a. 1:3

b. 1:4
