Ans) Mechanical ventilation, or assisted ventilation, is the medical term for artificial ventilation where mechanical means are used to assist or replace spontaneous breathing.
- A ventilator blows air into your airways through a breathing tube. One end of the tube is inserted into your windpipe and the other end is attached to the ventilator. The breathing tube serves as an airway by letting air and oxygen from the ventilator flow into the lungs.

7. The physician has ordered intubation and mechanical ventilation for a client with periods of apnea following a closed head injury. Arterial blood gases reveal a pH of 7.47, PCO2 of 28, and HCO3 of 23. These findings indicate t client has: A. Respiratory acidosis. B. Respiratory alkalosis C. Metabolic acidosis D. Metabolic alkalosis
1 pts Question 11 The nurse cares for a client on mechanical ventilation. The tidal volume (V) is set at 12 mL/kg. Which possible result MOST concerns the nurse? O Hypercapnia. O Barotrauma. O Hypoventilation. O Increased Positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP).
Patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and requiring mechanical ventilation can develop fatal bacterial infections. A clinical trial randomly assigned 934 patients admitted to an ICU and requiring mechanical ventilation to two groups. The control group received a standard medical treatment, whereas the antibiotics group received antibiotics prophylactically in addition to the standard treatment. The study found that 107 of the 468 patients in the control group died, compared with 69 of the 466 patients in the antibiotics...

John is a 23 year old 58 kg male currently intubated and receiving mechanical ventilation. She is currently sedated on propofol at 20 mL/hr and receiving treatment for cryptococcal meningitis (secondary to drug abuse) with amphotericin B intravenously. Her past medical history is unremarkable. She was only able to tolerate about 15% of her meals (prior to intubation) due to the mental status changes related to the infection. You are asked to manage PPN and electrolytes on this patient. What...
