In Case Study 1, the patient's blood pressure was 78/42 mm Hg. What would her MAP equal?

A patient-ventilator system check reveals the following information: peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) 32 cm H2O, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 12 cm H2O, plateau pressure (Pplateau) 20 cm H2O,

inspiratory time (TI) 1 second, and set frequency 12/min. Calculate the mean airway pressure. a. 4 cm H2O b. 8 cm H2O c. 12 cm H2O d. 14 cm H2O

Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)

1. All fluoroscopic imaging systems are required to possess a minimum of 0.125 mm of lead (Pb) for the bucky slot cover. 2. The c-arm’s shape configuration allows the x-ray tube and image intensifier tube to remain in constant alignment. 3. A cathode ray tube, or TV picture tube, permits real-time viewing of the fluoroscopic procedure on a TV display monitor. 4. A charge-coupled device is a semiconducting device that converts light photons from the image intensifier tube into numerous electron charges (analog signal). 5. A dynamic (or moving) image is a radiographic image that demonstrates functional ability of internal structures in real-time.
