Q

What is TCT?

A

Ti + Te

17
Q

After you get your answer for TCT what do you divide by to get the RR?

A

60
Ex. TCT=Ti+Te
60 s/TCT = F

18
Q

How do you improve O2?

A
  1. Increased FiO2
  2. PEEP (refractory hypoxemia)
  3. Improve ventilation
  4. APRV or Bilevel ventilation (focuses on MAP)
  5. Pressure control with inverse ratio ventilation
  6. Proning
19
Q

What is inverse ratio?

A

Ti is longer than Te
Ex. 1:2 ➡️ 2:1

20
Q

What does inverse ratio help with?

A

More time for inspiration and gas exchange

21
Q

What is the normal TCT?

A

3-5 secs; RR 12-20 bpm

22
Q

What is the Vt & rate for COPD pts?

A

6-8mL/kg ; 8-12 bpm

23
Q

What are the formula for Vt?

A

Vt = Ve/RR

24
Q

What is the formula for Raw?

A

PIP-Pplat/Flow

25
Q

What is the formula for the A-a gradient?

A

PAO2-PaO2

26
Q

What is the formula for dynamic compliance?

A

VT/PIP-PEEP

27
Q

What is the formula for dead space?

A

PaCO2-PeCO2/PaCO2

28
Q

What is the formula for static compliance?

A

CS = VT/(Pplat − PEEP)

29
Q

T or F Dividing by different RR gives different times?

A

True
Ex. 7-6 sec

30
Q

What is the formula for flow?

A

VT/Ti

31
Q

What is the formula for RR?

A

RR= Ve/Vt

32
Q

What it’s the equation for I:E ratio?

A

I:E = Ti/Te
