Your 41-year-old ventilator dependent patient needs transport to the emergency room for evaluation of a fever. He has a GCS of 7, which is his baseline. Vital signs are BP 132/90, P 112, R 20, SpO2 93% on 40% FIO2, and Temp 102.1 F. Your ambulance is not equipped with a ventilator and you have just removed him from his home ventilator and supply bag-valve ventilations with oxygen at 15 lpm. Vital signs are now BP 144/94, P 124, R 24, and SpO2 94%. Lung fields are clear and equal bilaterally. He is also agitated and breathing against the manual ventilations. You should administer

14. A 57-yeаr-оld wоmаn visits her primаry care prоvider (PCP) complaining of chronic shortness of breath, at rest and with exertion, and a productive cough with sputum. The patient reports having smoked since age 16 and is currently smoking 1.5 packs/week. She denies drinking alcohol. Past medical history is significant for bouts of untreated essential hypertension. Vital signs reveal blood pressure 165/100 mm Hg. 88 HR, 21 RR. Physical exam reveals pronounced wheezing on lung auscultation. ECG is normal, and CXR shows no lung consolidation. Spirometry reveals low FEV1 & FEV1/FVC. Inhalation of a bronchodilator does not improve FEV1 or FEV1/FVC. Her peak flow meter reading is 110 L/min. The patient’s PCP prescribes Ipratropium bromide (Atrovent®), administered through a metered-dose inhaler. After 1 week of treatment, the patient’s peak flow velocity improves to 220 L/min. Which of the following mechanisms explains the therapeutic effect of Ipratropium bromide in this patient?

A pistоn-cylinder system cоntаins V_1 = 5 L оf Refrigerаnt 22 аt a pressure p_1 = 1.0 bar and a temperature T_1 = 0 deg C. (a) Find the mass of R-22 in the cylinder. m = _______ kg. (b) Find the initial internal energy of the system. U_1 = _______ kJ. 2.7638 kJ of heat is transferred from the refrigerant to the environment. (c) What is the volume of the final state? V_2 = _______ L. (d) How much work is done by the refrigerant on the environment during the process? W_12 = _______ kJ.
A rigid cоpper tаnk, initiаlly cоntаining 2 m^3 оf nitrogen at 300 K, 1 bar, is connected by a valve to a large supply line carrying nitrogen at 300 K, 20 bar. The valve is opened only as long as required to fill the tank with nitrogen to a pressure of 20 bar. Finally, the nitrogen in the tank is at 310 K. The copper tank, which has a mass of 10 kg, is at the same temperature of the air in the tank, initially and finally. The specific heat of copper is c = 0.385 kJ/kg/K. (a) Assuming ideal gas behavior of the nitrogen, determine the initial mass of nitrogen in the tank, in kg. m_1 = _______ kg. (b) Determine the final mass. m_2 = _______ kg. (c) Find the heat transfer to the surroundings from teh tank and its contents, in kJ, ignoring kinetic and potential energy effects. _______ kJ.
