Scalars (linear waveforms) displayed during mechanical ventilation include all of the following except 

In a volume mode of ventilation the flow- time waveform will be  ___________________.

Both physiological and technical factors can influence the accuracy of pulse oximetery measurements. These include all of the following except ______________.

These curves were measured on a mechanically ventilated patient: Curve A was measured at 7 a.m. Curve B was measured at 11 a.m. There was no change in delivered tidal volume between 7 and 11 a.m. Plateau versus PIP.png Between 7 and 11, the patient’s airway resistance (Raw) decreased.
