IBW Males

50+2.3[height(inches)-60]


50+0.91x(height in cm-152.4)


cm-152.4)

IBW Females

45.5 + 2.3 [height(inches)-60]


45.5+0.91x(height in cm-152.4)

Pplat=tVe/Cstat + PEEP

Calculation for Plateau pressure


Cstat is static lung compliance

Min Volume

(IBWx100mL)/min


Ex:77kg×100=7.7L/min


For metabolic acidosis increase to 160-200


77kg × 160=12.3 L/min

Resp rate

Minute vent/Vte


Current respiratory rate x pc02/ desired pco2

NIV CHF

6/6=12/6 on additive ventilator increasing expiration pressure as needed to improve oxygenation increased MAP is the goal 6/14 or 6/30 for longer inhalation

NIV COPD

Initial 6/6=12/6 increasing inspiratory pressure as needed to decrease wob,fatigue, and distress increased driving pressure may be needed 24/6


Longer exhalation

Pplat >30

Decrease tV by 1 mL/kg

Pplat <25

Increase tV by 1mL/kg

pH >7.45

Decrease RR

pH <7.15

Increase tV by 1mL/kg


May need to give NaHCO3

Increase o2

Increase fio2, increase PEEP, Increase I time

Increase Ventilation

Increase Vte, increase ipressure, increase RR

Driving pressure calculation

pPlat-PEEP=driving pressure



Pressure required for alveolar opening



Less than 15 good greater than 15 associated with increased mortality

Normal minute ventilation

4-8 L/M

Tidal volume

4-8 ml/kg ideal body weight


Sometimes as low as 4ml/kg in ARDS pts

Hypoxic resp failure

Inability to diffuse o2


ARDs, Pneumonia, CHF


Evidenced by po2 <60


Treatment increase fio2 and PEEP


Treatment assumes tV and rate have been maintained


Increasing fio2,peep, or combination of the two will increase spo2 saturations. Rate and tV will have little to no impact.


Hypercarbic Respiratory failure

Inability to remove co2


Damage to Pons or upper medulla


Stroke/trauma


Evidenced by Resp acidosis >45mmhg


Treatment- increase tV(pPlat) then increase rate


Double minute volume (Ve) normal 4-8L/min


Use caution exceeding 8mL/kg of IBW for tV settings can cause VILI


If pt is achieving adequate tV pPlat(25-30mmhg) begin to slowly increase the rate to achieve Ve of 4-8 L/min and reassess every 15 minutes for improvement

Peak inspiratory pressure PIP

<35cmH20 amount of resistance to overcome the ventilator circuit, any appliances, the ett and the main airways

pPlat Plateau pressure

<30cmh20


Measurement of the pressure applied during ppv to the small airways and alveoli


Represents the static end insp recoil pressure of the resp system lung and chest wall respectively

Low pressure alarm

Pt d/c from machine


Chest tube leaks


Airway leaks


Hypovolemia

High pressure alarm

Kinked line


Coughing


Secretions or mucus in airway


Pt biting the tube


Reduced lung compliance (pneumothorax/ards)


Increased airway resistance

Acute respiratory deterioration

PIP: decreased- airleak, hypoventilation, hyperventilating


No change- Pulmonary embolism, extrathoracic process


Increased- check pPlat



If pPlat increased =decreased compliance: abdominal distention, asynchronous breathing, atelectasis, pleural effusion, endobronchial intubation, autopeep, trendelenburg, pneumothorax, pulmonary edema




If no change in pPlat= airway obstruction: aspiration of foreign body, bronchospasm, secretions, trachea tube obstruction, ett cuff herniation, kinked ETT

Cm to inches conversion

divide the length value in cm by 2.54 to get inches

Desired o2 per altitude

Pao2 will decrease by 5 mmhg per 1000' increase in altitude



Calculation:


%fio2xP1÷P2



P1 current barometric pressure


P2 new barometric pressure at altitude

Winters formula

Provides an estimate for baseline co2 for chronic hypercapnea:


(HCO3 from BMP x 1.5) + 8 = normal (desired) pco2


Correcting RR based on winters


Current pco2 ×current rr÷desired pco2

Auto peep

Ards or pulmonary edema can present with 3-4 cmh2o of auto peep



If above that in ards or pulmonary edema or if the pt has copd and presents with any auto peep


Ensure adequate sedation, 1.reduce RR lowest of 12, 2.Reduce I time(however if pt had high airway resistance trouble getting air in or ards this can increase turbulence in airway or decrease ability to oxygenate) or 3. reduce Vt


Also consider taking pt off of ventilator to allow full exhalation while changes are made.


High levels of auto peep over a prolonged period of time can result in hypoxia, hypotension, or pneumothorax

PPlat-PEEP

Driving pressure

100ml/kg/min

Minute ventilation

Recruitment manuver

Increase peep by 2 for 2 minutes


Check cstat (average of 3) if higher then increase peep by 2 for 2 min


Check cstat repeat until no improvement or decrease in ctsat leave peep at highest cstat return
