Exam Preview for 2261: The Evidence-Based Evolution of HFJV Patient

The Evidence-Based Evolution of HFJV Patient Management

Please note: exam questions are subject to change.

1. What were the observed changes in key parameters during the treatment period in Friedlich et al.'s study (2003)? Decreased MAP, FiO2, and OI Sustained ↓ MAP, FiO2, and OI Increased MAP, FiO2, and OI No significant changes in MAP, FiO2, and OI
2. What recommendation do Plavka et al. (2006) propose regarding the initiation of jet ventilation? Delay starting HFJV as other modes fail Do not start HFJV concurrently with other modes Begin HFJV as soon as possible Use HFJV as a last resort
3. Which of the following statements accurately summarizes the findings of Miller et al. (2020)? High-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) has no significant impact on ventilation HFJV increases the need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) HFJV leads to statistically significant improvements in ventilation There is insufficient evidence to determine the impact of HFJV on ventilation
4. According to the conclusion statement, what is the stance on the necessity of randomized control trials (RCTs) for validating interventions? RCTs are essential for all interventions RCTs are mandatory RCTs are unreliable for assessing interventions RCTs are not always necessary for supported interventions when observational evidence is present
5. Which of the following best describes the purpose of meta-analysis? To conduct original research on a particular topic To contrast and combine results from different studies To conduct experiments in a controlled environment To test hypotheses using observational data
