The Ventilator Graphics Generated by Mechanical Ventilation with Pressure-Controlled Continuous
Multiple Choice
The ventilator graphics generated by mechanical ventilation with pressure-controlled continuous mandatory ventilation (PC-CMV) ,rate 18,peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) 25 cm H₂O,positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 5 cm H₂O,are shown in the scalars below.Interpretation of these scalars reveals which of the following?
A) The flow rate is set too high and should be reduced.
B) There is air trapping that could be due to a high respiratory rate.
C) The ventilator settings are appropriate and there are no problems.
D) There is a leak in the system that needs to be identified and corrected.
