FUNCTIONS OF THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
facilitate ventilation
comfort. 5
INDICATIONS
1- Acute respiratory failure due to:
A- Pulmonary function
studies:
• Respiratory rate > 35 10-20
(breaths/min).
• Tidal volume (ml/kg <5 5-7
body wt)
•Maximum Inspiratory
Force (cm HO2) <-20 75-100
CRITERIA FOR INSTITUTION OF VENTILATOR
SUPPORT:
2- Invasive

TERMINOLOGY
BiPAP (also referred to as BPAP) is short for Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure and this machine
has a very similar function to CPAP machine therapy.they are a non-invasive form of
But using a Bi PAP machine, patients can breathe easier as the machine reduces the pressure level
during exhalation, allowing the patient to exhale more easily and breathe more comfortably. But ,
Minute volume is the volume of air moved into or out of the lungs in one minute. Respiratory rate
multiply tidal volume (VT) = minute volume. Several symbols can be used to represent minute 13
volume. Several symbols can be used to represent minute volum as Q , V , MV, and VE.
USES OF CPAP & PEEP
Improved oxygenation
Decreased fatigue

INDICATIONS FOR NIV
1. Hemodynamic instability
2. Cardio pulmonary arrest
3. Fascial trauma and deformity
4. Severe upper gastrointestinal bleed
5. Severe encephalopathy
6. Inability to cooperate and protect airway
7. Inability to clear secretions
8. Upper airway obstructions
9. High risk for aspiration

COMMON VENTILATOR SETTINGS
PARAMETERS/ CONTROLS
1- Flushed face
2- Dry cough
3- Dyspnea
4- Chest pain
5- Tightness of chest
6- Sore throat
● TIDAL VOLUME (VT)
.
In the volume ventilator, Tidal volumes of
10 to 15 mL/kg of body weight were
traditionally used.
barotrauma is increased.
Increased secretions
Disconnected tubing
A cuff leak
A hole in the tubing (ETT or ventilator tubing)
A leak in the humidifier
Oxygen alarm
The oxygen supply is insufficient or is not properly connected.
High respiratory rate alarm
Episodes of tachypnea
Anxiety
Pain
Hypoxia
Fever
Temperature alarm
Overheating due to too low or no gas flow.
Improper water levels
The low tidal volume alarm on a client's ventilator keeps sounding. The nurse
must Check ventilator connections.
WEANING READINESS CRITERIA
F < 25 / minute
Vt 5 ml / kg
VE 5- 10 L/m (f x Vt)
VC > 10- 15 ml / kg
COMPLICATIONS
OF MECHANICAL VENTILATION:-
I- Airway Complications,
1- Aspiration
3- Nosocomial or ventilator-acquired
pneumonia
II- MECHANICAL COMPLICATIONS
1- Hypoventilation with atelectasis with respiratory acidosis or
hypoxemia.
3- Barotrauma
Stress ulcers
Paralytic ileus
Gastric distension
Starvation
IV- ARTIFICIAL AIRWAY COMPLICATIONS
A- ENDOTRACHEAL TUBE:-
- Tracheal stenosis
- Cuff failure
- Sinusitis
- Otitis media
- Laryngeal edema
B-COMPLICATIONS RELATED TO
TRACHEOSTOMY TUBE:-
Acute hemorrhage at the site
Air embolism
Aspiration
Tracheal stenosis
Failure of the tracheostomy cuff
Laryngeal nerve damage
Obstruction of tracheostomy tube
Pneumothorax
Swallowing dysfunction
Tracheoesophageal fistula
Infection
Accidental decannulation with loss of airway
NURSING CARE OF PATIENTS ON
MECHANICAL VENTILATION
Assessment:
serious.
If you can not quickly identify the problem, take the patient off the ventilator
and ventilate him with a resuscitation bag connected to oxygen source until
One of the following is a risk of keeping high PEEP is hypotension so that must check
