Assume that Bethany acquires a competitor’s assets on April 10th. The purchase price was $150,000.

A patient with COPD and pneumonia is receiving mechanical ventilation. The following ventilator settings are available:   Mode – VC-SIMV FIO2 – 0.28 Mandatory rate – 8 Total rate – 16 VT – 700 mL PEEP – 4 cm H2O Sensitivity – -2 cm H2O Pressure support – 5 cm H2O. Vital signs and oxygenation have been stable for 48 hours. Which of the following should the respiratory therapist recommend? 

Data listed were obtained while an adult patient was receiving volume controlled ventilation with an FIO2 of 0.50. At 1300: Plateau pressure (cm H2O) – 30 PEEP – (cm H2O) – 0 PaO2 (torr) – 40 PvO2 (torr) – 28 B/P(mm Hg) – 140/90 At 1600: Plateau pressure – 35 PEEP – 6 PaO2 – 60 PvO2 – 39 B/P – 130/90 At 1700: Plateau pressure – 36 PEEP – 8 PaO2 – 65 PvO2 – 43 B/P – 130/95 At 1800: Plateau pressure – 40 PEEP – 10 PaO2 – 70 PvO2 – 45 B/P – 120/80 At 1900: Plateau pressure – 42 PEEP – 12 PaO2 – 75 PvO2 – 42 B/P – 100/80. Which of the levels of PEEP is best for this patient? 

Two hours after extubation, a patient develops inspiratory stridor and respiratory distress. A treatment with aerosolized racemic epinephrine decreases the inspiratory stridor and relieves the patient’s distress. The most like source of the airway problem is 

Uranium has three common isotopes, U-234, U-235, and U-238. Using the percent abundances of each isotope, calculate the average atomic mass of uranium: U-234 has an abundance of 0.01% U-235 has an abundance of 0.71% U-238 has an abundance of 99.28%
