1. Calculate the static compliance (CS), in mL/cm H2O, when PIP is 47 cm H2O, 
plateau pressure (Pplateau) is 27 cm H2O, baseline pressure is 10 cm H2O, and 
exhaled tidal volume (VT) is 725 mL. 
a. 43 CS 
b. 36 CS 
c. 20 CS 
d. 0.065 CS - ️️A. Cs = Vt/(Pplat - PeeP) Cs = 725 / (27-10), Cs=725/17, 
42.64=725/17 
2. Air accidently trapped in the lungs due to mechanical ventilation is known as which of 
the following?

Indicates metabolic acidosis w/ respiratory alkalosis compensation 
A pt misses dialysis for a few days and comes in with fluid overload. He's tachycardic 
and tachypneic. On physical exam, you find JVD, pulsus paradoxus (20 mmHg drop 
during inspiration), and HoTN (80/40) with distant, muffled heart sounds. Lungs are 
clear to auscultation. What is the dx? - Correct answer-Cardiac tamponade; obstructive
