Question 4: What are the indications of humidity therapy?

Answer:

Upper airway edema, Croup, Epiglottitis, post extubation Edema, bronchial hygiene, sputum induction

Question 5: Define condensation?

Answer:

Change of state from a gas to a liquid, as with water vapor condensation

Question 6: What is cromolyn sodium used to treat?

Answer:

Prophylactic for asthma

Question 7: What is the mode of action for xanthines?

Answer:

Promotes smooth muscle relaxation

Question 8: How does a breath enhanced SVN work?

Answer:

aerosol continuously, system of one-way valves, minimize aerosol waste. Inspiratory vent allows patient to draw air through nebulizer chamber generating & containing aerosolized drug, inlet vet closes, Aerosol exits oneway valve, increase inhaled mass 50%

Question 9: With what devices are therapeutic aerosols generated?

Answer:

Atomizer, nebulizer Question 10: To ensure delivery of a proper drug dosage with a meter dose inhaler, what must be done to it before its use?

Answer:

The canister should be warm to head or body temperature, canister should be vigorously shaking Question 11: When using a metered dose inhaler without a holding chamber or a spacer, the patient should be instructed to fire the device at what point?

Answer:

Immediately after beginning a slow inspiration

Question 12: Add high flow rates, what do you some bubble humidifiers produce?

Answer:

Aerosol particles

Question 13: What are the two main types of nebulizers?

Answer:

Jet/SVN; ultrasonic Question 14: Which type of humidifier traps the patient's body he ate expired water vapor to raise the humidity of the inspired gas?

Answer:

Heat moisture exchanger Question 15: What is the primary fate of inhaled aerosol particles that are between 1 and 0.5 µm?

Answer:

Most are clear during exhalation

Question 16: What are the effects of stimulating the beta one receptor site?

Answer:

Increased heart rate, increased force contractibility

Question 17: What type of humidifiers are used in clinical practice?

Answer:

Heat moisture exchanger, passover humidifier, bubble humidifier

Question 18: What is the action of cGMP?

Answer:

Promotes bronchoconstriction Question 19: What are the adverse affects that can occur with aerosolized steroids?

Answer:

Greater expense then oral, not helpful in status asthmaticus, increased risk of infection Question 20: What technique will increase aerosol deposition of small particles?

Answer:

10 second breath hold

Question 21: A heat moisture exchanger has an efficiency rating of 80%. What does this mean?

Answer:

Of the Exhaled the water vapor, 80% returns to the patient on inspiration

Question 22: Define dewpoint?

Temperature at which water vapor condenses back to with liquid form Question 23: To protect against obstructed or kinked tubing, simple bubble humidifiers incorporate what?

Answer:

Pressure relief valve Question 24: Simple unheated bubble humidifiers are commonly used to humidify gases with what type of system?

Answer:

Oronasal oxygen delivery

Question 25: Define aerosol?

Answer:

Hey suspension of solid, liquid, particles in a gas Question 26: If position wants to deliver a therapeutic aerosol to the central and lower airways.To help ensure maximum Deposition in this area, you would select an aerosol generator with an MMAD in what range?

Answer:
