Chapter 3, Problem 1CAQ2
Summary Introduction
To review:
The three physiologic effects that would be demonstrated if the respiratory therapist obtained the same bedside spirometry results.
Introduction:
Spirometry measures the function of lungs, and the amount and speed of air entering and leaving the lungs. It is one of the most common pulmonary function tests. It helps in the assessment of diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, pulmonary fibrosis, asthma, and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disorders).
Please refer to Clinical Application Case-1 for further information.

Scenario 1: Mr. Pickwick has obstructive sleep apnea, and the doctor has ordered him to be placed on BiPAP at the following settings: mode, S/T; rate, 12 breaths/minute; IPAP = 12 cm H2O; EPAP = 6 cm H2O. You enter his room, identify yourself, and explain everything to him. You also perform a complete assessment. After applying BiPAP, you note a drop in blood pressure and oxygen saturation.
1) What would you recommend to Mr. Pickwick for infection control in the home?
