2026 150 Questions and 100% Verified Correct
Answers Guaranteed A+
1/2 Normal Saline - CORRECT ANSWER: Hypotonic
3% Normal Saline - CORRECT ANSWER: Hypertonic
Adaptive Pressure Control (APC) - CORRECT ANSWER: Utilizes closed-loop control of
the pressure setting to maintain a minimum delivered tidal volume
TV depends on pt's lung compliance
Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV) - CORRECT ANSWER: Changes the number of
mandatory breaths and pressure support level according to the patient's breathing
pattern
Afterload - CORRECT ANSWER: The force or resistance against which the heart
contracts
Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) - CORRECT ANSWER: Allows
unrestricted, spontaneous breaths throughout the ventilatory cycle
On inspiration the pt receives a preset level of CPAP, and pressure is periodically
released to aid expiration
Two levels of CPAP applied w/ intermittent release phase for spontaneous breaths
For ARDS, ALI, atelectasis
American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) Impairment Scale - CORRECT ANSWER:
(A=Awful)
,Anterior Wall MI - CORRECT ANSWER: V2-V4; left anterior descending artery (LAD)
Anticoagulants - CORRECT ANSWER: Heparin, warfarin, lovenox
Antiplatelets - CORRECT ANSWER: ASA and clopidogrel
APGAR Score - CORRECT ANSWER: HR-CTR
HR: 0=0, <100=1, >100=2
RR: 0=0, shallow=1, crying=2
Color: all blue=0, blue extrems=1, all pink=2
Tone: 0=0, weak tone=1, active tone=2
Reflex: 0=0, facial grimace=1, good active reflex=2
Assist Control (A/C) - CORRECT ANSWER: • A/C will provide a set number of breaths
every minute, but will allow patients who want a higher rate to initiate breaths on their
own.
• If the patient is capable of taking breaths on their own, the ventilator will sense that
the patient is taking a breath by the (-) flow of air and will help facilitate the breath by
DELIVERING THE SET TIDAL VOLUME.
- The patient can breathe as many times a minute as they want but will get the same
TV with each breath.
• The time between breaths is based on the set RR
- If the RR is set to 12 and there is no breath initiated within 5 seconds, the ventilator
will give the patient a controlled (ventilator-dependent) breath.
- The ventilator will give this set number of breaths every minute as long as the patient
isn't attempting to breathe.
, - The ventilator won't allow the patient to breathe less than the set amount.
• A/C = 18 + 8 (Patient breaths) = 26 total bpm
*May need to decrease assistance of machine or else patient can hyperventilate.
- Decrease RR or switch to SIMV
Automatic Tube Compensation (ATC) - CORRECT ANSWER: Offsets and compensates
for the airflow resistance imposed by the artificial airway
Autonomic Dysreflexia - CORRECT ANSWER: Involves uncontrolled activation of
autonomic neurons
At or above T6
Increased BP, decreased HR, flushing, HA, diaphoresis
Beta 1 Receptors - CORRECT ANSWER: Heart (increase heart rate)
Beta 2 Receptors - CORRECT ANSWER: Lungs (increase bronchodilation)
Betamethasone - CORRECT ANSWER: For immature baby lungs
Bicarbonate (HCO3) - CORRECT ANSWER: 22-26
Breech Birth - CORRECT ANSWER: Feet or butt first
Bulbocavernous Reflex (BCR) - CORRECT ANSWER: Check if for sure SCI
BUN - CORRECT ANSWER: 10-20
