Exam Preview for 1439: Mechanical Ventilation: Adaptive Support Ven

Mechanical Ventilation: Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV)

Please note: exam questions are subject to change.

1. An advantage when using the ASV mode of mechanical ventilation includes: Guarantees both tidal volume and respiratory rate Inability to recognize and adjust to the change in alveolar deadspace May cause possible respiratory atrophy Varying mean airway pressure
2. What does adaptive support ventilation use to optimize the patient's oxygenation and ventilation? Patient's airway resistance and lung compliance Dynamic compliance and tidal volume Pressure support and airway resistance Static compliance and minute ventilation
3. ASV uses a proximal flow sensor to measure the patient's respiratory mechanics in order to maintain which of the following? A preset inspiratory pressure A mandatory rate A dynamic hyperinflation of lungs A set minute volume percentage
4. An example of open-loop ventilation used during conventional ventilation is: PRVC PC NAVA ASV
5. When using ASV mode, what settings are required? Percent minute volume FiO2 PEEP All of the above
