CCRN Barrons Respiratory Concepts Exam Questions and Answers 100% pass Rely on mild hypoxemia for ventilator drive. if the PaO2 Is corrected to normal, this may result in a decreased drive to breathe - Answer- Chronic PaCO2 retainers What is the clinical indicator of ventilation - Answer- PaCO2 What is minute ventilation - Answer- tidal volume x respiratory rate +normal ventilation is about 4L/min an increase in minute ventilation = - Answer- an increase in work of breathing Primary musc...

ADULT CCRN/PCCN CERTIFICATION TEST One day following posterior spinal fusion surgery a 35 year old female suddenly exhibits restlessness, labored breathing and acute chest pain. Her heart rate is 122/min., she is afebrile, and exhibits slightly diminished breath sounds on the right side. The findings described above should lead the nurse to suspect that the patient has developed: A. A spontaneous pneumothorax B. A pulmonary embolus C. Aspiration pneumonia D. A pleural effusion - Cor...

CCRN PEDS AACN Exam Questions & Answers-PEEP is intended to do which of the following? A. Improve ventilation/perfusion matching B. Decrease functional residual capacity C. Increased venous return to the heart D. Increased cardiac output - A. Improve ventilation/perfusion matching - PEEP increases alveolar volume, thereby improving ventilation/perfusion matching and increasing functional residual capacity. - A detrimental effect of PEEP (especially at high levels) is a decrease in veno...
