Lab-Jessica's modes Flashcards
Assist Control is: (trigger limit cycle)
Patient/time triggered
Volume/Flow controlled during inspiration
Volume/Time Cycled
SIMV is (definition)
This mode is a specific (limited) number of assist control breaths interspersed with spontaneous breathing.
IMV is (definition):
Combination of periods of control mode and periods of spontaneous breathing
____ is a set (specific) number of assist control breaths interspersed with spontaneous breathing.
SIMV
In Pressure Control breathing is (trigger, limit, cycle)
Time or patient triggered
pressure controlled during inspiration
time cycled
In Pressure Support breathing is (trigger, limit, cycle)
Patient triggered
pressure controlled
flow cycled
Intermittent Machine Ventilation (definition)
IMV- Combination of periods of control mode and periods of spontaneous breathing
control mode + spontaneous breathing
Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation is (definition and trigger, limit, cycle)
SIMV- specific number of mechanical (assist control) breaths interspersed with spontaneous breathing where machine breaths are:
Time/Patient Triggered
Volume Limited
Time Cycled
The acronym SIMV stands for what?
Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation
This mode is a combination of periods of control mode and periods of spontaneous breathing.
IMV
This mode is patient/time triggered, pressure controlled during inspiration and time cycled
Pressure Control
This mode is patient triggered, pressure controlled, and flow cycled.
pressure support
(spontaneous breathing with support)
This mode is a specific (limited) number of assist control breaths interspersed with spontaneous breathing
SIMV
This mode is patient/time triggered, flow controlled during inspiration and time cycled
Assist Control
A patient on P-A/C develops atelectasis. What would be the effect of the change to the ventilation status of the patient?
patient’s volume (tidal and minute) would decrease
This mode is a combination of periods of assist control mode and periods of spontaneous breathing.
SIMV
A wave form shows: the following:
Flow: varied flow each breath (mechanical and spontaneous)
Pressure: stays same each breath (M & S)
Volume: varies with each breath (M &S)
The breaths are all equal in length. What is the mode of ventilation>
Pressure A/C
What mode of ventilation allows an adjustment of the flow required to end inspiration?
PSV- the clue is “flow required” which means that the breath is flow cycled
What mode of ventilation allows the patient volume to vary with changes in compliance and resistance but the length of inspiration is controlled by the therapist
P-Assist Control
This mode is a specific (limited) number of assist control breaths interspersed with spontaneous breathing.
SIMV
This mode is a combination of periods of control mode and periods of spontaneous breathing
IMV
This mode is patient/time triggered, pressure controlled during inspiration and time cycled
PC (aka PCV, PAC or PC-AC)
This mode is patient triggered, pressure controlled and flow cycled
PSV, (Pressure support)
This mode is patient/time triggered, flow controlled during inspiration, and time cycled
Assist Control
