What is AAC |
Artificial Airway Compensation |
|
|
What must you enter for AAC |
size and length of tube |
|
|
When doesn't AAC work on the Avea |
not on mandatory breaths in neonatal PSIMV unless flow cycle is engaged |
|
|
What is flow cycle on the Avea |
cycles to exhalation with flow, not time. Set on 10% means 90% of flow and ventilator will cycle to exhalation |
|
|
What is rise time |
speed of breath delivery 1= fastest, 9= slowest |
|
|
Where do you set rise time if air hungry? |
1 (fastest) |
|
|
Where do you set rise time for alveolar recruitment |
9 (slowest) |
|
|
What is machine volume on the Avea |
delivers a set volume, limited by pressure |
|
|
What is volume limit on Avea |
Limits the volume delivered |
|
|
What is APRV on the Avea |
Airway Pressure Release Ventilation |
|
|
What do you set for APRV |
Th, Tl, Ph,Pl |
|
|
Is APRV biphasic in the Avea |
Yes, but not available in neonatal mode |
|
|
What is C20 |
comparison of last 20%, C20/C |
|
|
What does C20 show |
over 1 = no dissension, under 1 = overdistension, beak on pressure/volume loop |
|
|
How do you determine tube depth |
6 + weight in Kg |
|
|
How do you accurately determine tube size in under 500g baby |
X-Ray only |
|
|
What is a left shift on a pressure/volume loop |
stiffer lungs |
|
|
What is a right shift on a pressure/volume loop |
more compliant lungs |
|
|
What is a jagged flow/pressure loop at the top |
water in tubing, inspiratory side |
|
|
What is a jagged flow/pressure loop at the bottom |
airway congestion, expiratory side |
|
|
What is a figure "8" in the flow/pressure loop |
patient pulling flow, increase pressure support |
|
|
What does a circle mean on the volume, X axis |
leak |
|
|
What is neonatal tube size |
2.5 <1000g, 3- 1000-2000g, 4 - 2000-3000g |
