[What is the minimum number of control media levels needed to periodically confirm the validity of blood gas analyzer results via calibration verification?] one two three four None . [COPD pts who have OSA:] Have worse nocturnal desats compared to someone with only OSA Often have nocturnal hypoventilation due to impaired ventilatory mechanics during sleep Have a higher rate of mortality then someone who has only OSA All of the Statements are true None . [Entonnox administered during labour] Should be used with caution as it causes respitroy depression Mostly composed of oxygen Common analgesic Called nitric oxide None . [You are ventilating an adult patient (IBW 70 kg) in APRV. The patient had developed ARDS secondary to sepesis and is now resolving.
