DISSOCIATION CURVE
END-TIDAL • Indications: exhaled carbon dioxide
CARBON ETCO2 can be used to estimate

PaCO2!
DIOXIDE Normal EtCO2 35-45
MONITORIN • Typically 2-5 mm Hg difference
G • EtCO2 lower than PaCO2
Accuracy of readings may be affected by:

• Water vapor in ventilator tubing
• High FiO2
• Measures the level of carbon dioxide at
the end of exhalation
• Can be used to measure approximate
levels of PaCO2.

ARTIFICIAL
AIRWAYS
Who needs an artificial airway?
How do we assess airway?

ESTABLISH AIRWAY
• Head-tilt-chin-lift
• Jaw thrust
• Bite block
• Oral airway
ARTIFICIAL AIRWAYS
Endotracheal
Oropharyngeal Nasopharyngeal Suctionning
Tubes
• Unconscious • Use cautiously • Must confirm • No longer
patients only! in severe proper than 15 sec at
craniofacial placement a time.

INTUBATION MEDICATIONS
• Sedatives
1. Versed 0.3-0.35 mg/kg IV
2. Diprivan (Propofol) 2-2.5 mg/kg for RSI induction. Ventilator sedation 5-50
mcg/kg.min
3. Etomidate does 0.3-0.6 mg/kg
4. Ketamine dose: 1-2 mg/kg ; produces a dissociative state for 5- 10 minutes
• Neuromuscular Blocking Agents
1. Succinylcholine dose: 1mg/kg; onset 1-3 minutes; duration: 4-6 minutes; will elevate
serum potassium level
2. Rocuronium ( Zemuron)
3. Vecuronium (Norcuron) dose: 0.1mg/kg; onset: 3-5 minutes; duration: 20-30 min

VENTILATORS
• Negative-Pressure Ventilators
• Iron lung- rarely used

MECHANICAL
VENTILATORS
• Positive-Pressure Ventilators
• Volume Ventilators – most common

• With this mode ventilation, RR, inspiratory time
and Tidal Volume are selected for the pt.
• Pressure Ventilators – common
• A typical pressure mode delivers a selected gas
pressure to the patient throughout the
inspiratory phase. By meeting the patients
inspiratory flow demand throughout inspiration-
patient effort is reduced.
• High-Frequency Ventilators
• Use small tidal volumes, move small volumes of
air in at a fast rate.
VOLUME
MODES
Assist- • Rate and tidal volume preset
Control
• Will give full-volume breath at set
(A/C)– full rate and for spontaneous patient
support breaths
Synchronized • Rate and tidal volume preset

Intermittent
• Any breaths taken above set rate
Mandatory are not given volume breath
Ventilation support
(SIMV) –
• Has the ability to allowed the
great for patient to assume more of the work
weaning of breath to assist with weaning.
PRESSURE MODES
Pressure-Support (PSV) Pressure-Controlled
• No preset tidal volume or • No set tidal volume but set

rate rate
• High flow of gas during • Must monitor for tidal
inspiration volume and RR
• As a weaning tool PSV is • Used for ARDS and where
thought to increase the you have high levels of PEEP
endurance of the
respiratory muscles by
decreasing the physical
work and oxygen
demands.
POSITIVE END-EXPIRATORY PRESSURE
• Positive-pressure exerted at end-expiration

• Prevention of oxygen toxicity
• Alveoli recruitment
• Keep the alveoli stent open and recruit alveoli units that
are totally or partially collapsed during any mode of
ventilation.
• Complications!
• Decreased cardiac output
• Barotrauma
CONTINUOUS POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE
(CPAP)
• Exerts positive airway pressure throughout respiratory cycle
• Patient must have spontaneous tidal volumes and respirations
Great for weaning!

PHYSICIAN ORDERS
• Rate
• Tidal Volume – usually 5-8 ml/kg
• FiO2 % - watch for oxygen toxicity!
• PEEP 5-10 except in certain difficult cases
• Pressure Support (PS)
TROUBLE-SHOOTING ALARMS!
PG 534 TABLE 25-5
• High Pressure Alarm
1. Patient related
2. Vent related
• Low Pressure Alarm

1. Patient Related
2. Vent Related
When in Doubt, BAG the patient!

ALARMS
• High pressure
• Warning of rising pressure
• Asses for pneumo
• Suction the patient
• Administer B- agonist
• Evaluate ABG
• Provide sedation or paralysis if needed
• Check peak flow settings.
• Low pressure
• Disconnection of the patient from the ventilator
• Check for leak around the ET tube, ETT may be to high
• May be due to clearing of secretions or relief of bronchospasm.
NURSING
ASSESSMENT Assess connections
Monitor for infection
Note and Document ET placement
Check cuff pressures
Assess skin
Respiratory assessment at least every

2-4 hours
Restraints??
NURSING INTERVENTIONS – BOX 25-16
Change ET position frequently
Good oral hygiene
Elevate HOB 30-45 degrees
Frequent Oral Suctioning
Skin Care
Nutrition
Comfort/Pain
Accidental Extubation
Family/Patient Education
TRACHEOSTOMY TUBES
• Current practice promotes early
tracheostomy at 72 hours.
• 3-7 days on a ventilator.
• Complications of ETT
• Easier weaning with Tracheostomy
due to decreased dead space
• Tracheostomy complications
• Box 25-17
