Question 1
In a mechanically ventilated patient with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS / SDRA) receiving Volume-Controlled Ventilation (VCV), the plateau pressure (Pplat) is measured at 26 cmH2O and the set positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is 10 cmH2O. What is the calculated driving pressure (presión de conducción / delta P), and does it meet current protective mechanical ventilation targets according to SATI guidelines?
Correct Answer:
16 cmH2O; it exceeds the recommended protective ventilation threshold of < 15 cmH2O
Question 2
A 65-year-old intubated patient is ventilated in Volume-Controlled Ventilation (VCV) with a tidal volume (Vt) of 420 mL, PEEP of 8 cmH2O, peak inspiratory pressure (Ppeak) of 34 cmH2O, and plateau pressure (Pplat) of 22 cmH2O during an end-inspiratory pause. What is the patient's static respiratory compliance (Cstat)?
Correct Answer:
30 mL/cmH2O
Question 3
During a routine ventilator check in the ICU, the kinesiologist observes an abrupt rise in Peak Inspiratory Pressure (Ppeak) from 25 to 38 cmH2O, while the Plateau Pressure (Pplat) remains unchanged at 18 cmH2O with a constant square inspiratory flow of 60 L/min (1 L/s). What is the primary pathophysiological cause of this change?
Correct Answer:
An acute increase in airway resistance (Raw), such as bronchospasm, endotracheal tube kinking, or secretion accumulation
Question 4
Which graphical finding on mechanical ventilator waveforms specifically identifies dynamic hyperinflation and the presence of intrinsic PEEP (auto-PEEP)?
Correct Answer:
The expiratory flow waveform fails to return to zero baseline before the initiation of the next inspiration
Question 5
When analyzing a static Pressure-Volume (P-V) loop in a paralyzed patient with ARDS, the presence of a 'beak sign' (pico de pato) at the upper end of the curve indicates which clinical phenomenon?
Correct Answer:
Alveolar overdistension with a sharp decrease in compliance at high lung volumes
