possible questions and answers are here)
A PATIENTS OXIMETER READING DURING PATIENT CALIBRATION IS 88%.
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING WOULD BE THE APPROPRIATE RESPONSE?
PLACE THE PROBE ON THE PATIENTS EARLOBE
A PATIENT WITH ONDINES CURSE WOULD BE EXPECTED TO HAVE WHICH
TYPE OF RESPIRATORY IMPAIRMENT IN SLEEP
CENTRAL SLEEP APNEA
ACCORDING TO THE AASM, INTERCOSTAL EMG ACTIVITY IS AN ACCEPTABLE
ALTERNATIVE SESOR FOR RECORDING WHAT PARMETER
DETECTION OF RESPIRATORY EFFORT
SLOW ROLLING EYE MOVEMENTS OCCURING DURING STAGE N1 SLEEP WILL
BEST BE SEEN AT LOW FILTER SETTING OF
0.3HZ
A 1.0 HZ EEG WAVE IS MEASURED AT 15MM PEAK TO PEAK. THE SENSITIVITY
IS 5UV/MM. THE VOLTAGE OF THE WAVE IS
75UV
A CHEYNE STOKES BREATHING PATTERN IS OFTEN SEEN IN PATIENTS WITH
CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE
CAPNOGRAPHY MEASURES
EXPIRED CO2
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING HIGH FREQUENCY FILTER SETTINGS IS
RECOMMENDED FOR RECORDING SUBMENTAL EMG
100HZ
ENDOESOPHAGEAL PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS WOULD BE MOST HELPFUL
IN EVALUTATING WHICH SLEEP DISORDERS
SLEEP RELATED BREATHING DISORDERS
A PATIENT BEING EVALUATED FOR OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP DISORDERED
BREATHING HAS ATRIAL FIBRILLATION. WHAT SHOULD THE TECH DO
CONTINUE TO OBSERVE AND DOCUMENT RHYTHM
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS THE MOST DANGEROUS CARDIAC RHYTHM
VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION
HOW WOULD YOU COMPUTE SLEEP EFFICIENCY
TOTAL SLEEP TIME DIVIDED BY TIME IN BED X 100
HOW DO YOU CALCULATE APNEA + HYPOPNEA INDEX
# APNEAS AND HYPOPNEAS DIVIDED BY TST X60
WHICH HIGH PASS FILTER SETTING IS MOST APPROPRIATE FOR RECORDING
RESPIRATION
0.1HZ
THE PURPOSE OF AN EXHALATION PORT IN A CPAP CIRCUIT IS
TO VENT EXHALED C02
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING ARE CHARACTERISTIC OF A PVC
THE QRS IS WIDE AND BIZARRE
, A NORMAL VARIATION IN SINUS RHYTHM WHICH IS RELATED TO
RESPIRATORY RATE AND RESULTS FROM VAGAL TONE INHIBITION
DESCRIBES
SINUS ARRHYTHMIA
A SUSTAINED HEART RATE OF >90 BEATS/MINUTE DESCRIBES
SINUS TACHYCARDIA
PARTIAL AV BLOCK IN WHICH THE PR INTERVAL INCREASES PROGRESSIVELY
UNTIL THERE IS AN ATRIAL IMPULSE WITHOUT A CORRESPONDING
VENTRICULAR BEAT DESCRIBES
MOBITZ TYPE 1 AV BLOCK
WHAT IS THE MOST LIKELY LOW FREQUENCY FILTER SETTING OF CHANNEL 1
1.0 HZ
WHICH CHANNEL SETTING IS BEST FOR EMG RECORDING
2 CHAN 2 HAS A VERY QUICH RETURN TO BASELINE, (VERY SHORT TIME
CONSTAT)
REFER TO THE 30 SECOND EPOCH SHOWN HERE. IF THE NEXT EPOCH
CONTAINS 30 SECONDS OF LOW VOLTAGE, MIXED FREQUENCY IN THE 4-7 HZ
RANGE, AND NO EYE MOVEMENTS, WHAT IS THE SLEEP STAGE OF THAT NEXT
EPOCH?
STAGE N1 THE EPOCH SHOWN CONTAINS A K COMPLEX, POSSIBLE A SPINDLE
AND LESS THAN 20% HIGH AMPLITUDE SLOW WAVES, MAKING IT STAGE N2
THERE IS AN AROUSAL AT THE END OF THE EPOCH. IF THE FOLLOWING
EPOCH IS AS DESCRIVED, WITHOUT EITHER A K COMPLEX OR SPINDLE. IT IS
THEN STAGE N1
A PATIENT HAS POOR EXTREMITY CIRCULATION THAT IS AFFECTING THE
ACCURACY OF THE PULSE OXIMETRY READINGS FROM FINGER PROBE.
WHICH WOULD BE THE MOST APPROPRIATE ACTION
PUT THE PROBE ON THE PATIENTS EAR
SCORING STAGE N1 SLEEP REQUIRES AN ABSENCE OF
SLEEP SPINDLES
CARDIAC ACTIVITY IN WHICH ALL ATRIAL IMPULSES ARE BLOCKED AT THE
AV JUNCTION, AND THE ATRIA AND VENTRICLES BEAT INDEPENDENTLY IS
CALLED
3RD DEGREE AV BLOCK
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS AN EXAMPLE OF A RHYTHMIC MOVEMENT
DISORDER
JACTATIO CAPITIS NOCTURNA
SLEEP TERRORS ARE USUALLY ASSOCIATED WITH
OCCURRENCE IN THE 1ST THIRD OF THE SLEEP PERIOD
THE IMAGE SHOWN HERE IS AN EXAMPLE OF
BRUXISM
THE IMAGE SHOWN HERE, IS AN EXAMPLE OF
WENCHEBACH AV BLOCK
IN THE IMAGE SHOWN HERE, LOCATION 6 CORRESPONDS TO WHICH
