Your patient has been successfully resuscitated following cardiopulmonary arrest. The pulmonologist asks you to place the patient on a mode of ventilation that will reduce the patient’s WOB and provide a minute ventilation of at least 7 LPM. The most appropriate mode of ventilation is:

A 5’9 male is placed on the following ventilator settings: VT 350 mL PEEP 5 cmH2O   f 15 BPM   Ti 0.6 seconds   FiO2 0.4   One hour later, the ABG results are as follows: pH 7.25   PaCO2 52 mmHg   PaO2 170 mmHg   HCO3- 23 mEq/L    Without changing the mode of ventilation, provide 3 appropriate recommendations to improve the patient’s ABG

RESEARCH STUDY: Dr. Ickes is interested in studying the potential causal relationship between doing homework and academic achievement. In January, Dr. Ickes has her students report their Fall GPA (a measure of academic achievement) and estimate how many hours they spent doing homework during a typical week in the Fall semester. In April, Dr. Ickes measures the same variables again (the estimated number of hours spent doing homework during a typical week in the Spring semester and their Spring GPA). She finds the following correlations. Which of the correlations is an autocorrelation?
