- 3. An alarm usually caused by: coughing, blocked airway (Secretions)
- 7. Ventilatory pattern established by vent is patient does not initiate own breath
- 8. An alarm that is usually caused by: anxiety, pain, kinks in the ventilator tubing

- 2. Positive pressure exerted during expiration
- 4. Number of breaths per minute that the ventilator delivers
- 5. A nursing measure that helps prevent hospital acquired pneumonia and should be performed Q2 hours
- 6. Used for sleep apnea, respiratory muscle fatigue, impending respiratory failure to avoid more invasive measures
- 9. Ventilator supports every breath, whether it's initiated by the patient or the ventilator
- 10. physical tissue damage caused by a pressure difference between an unvented space inside the body and surrounding gas or fluid
