“Repeated or continuous observations or measurements of the
patient, physiological function, and the function of life support
equipment, for the purpose of guiding management decisions,
including when to make therapeutic interventions, and
assessment of those interventions”

A patient monitor may not only alert caregivers to potentially lifethreatening events; many provide physiologic input data used to
control directly connected life-support devices.

4. 
There are at least four categories of patients who need physiologic monitoring:

1. Patients with unstable physiologic regulatory systems; for example, a patient whose respiratory
system is suppressed by a drug overdose or anesthesia.

2. Patients with a suspected life-threatening condition; for example, a patient who has findings
indicating an acute myocardial infarction (heart attack).

3. Patients at high risk of developing a life-threatening condition; for example, patients immediately
post open-heart surgery, or a premature infant whose heart and lungs are not fully developed.

4. Patients in a critical physiological state; for example, patients with multiple trauma or septic
shock.

17. 1- Acute respiratory failure due to:

Mechanical failure, includes neuromuscular diseases as Myasthenia Gravis,
Guillain-Barré Syndrome, and Poliomyelitis (failure of the normal respiratory
neuromuscular system)

Musculoskeletal abnormalities, such as chest wall trauma (flail chest)
Infectious diseases of the lung such as pneumonia, tuberculosis.
2- Abnormalities of pulmonary gas exchange as in:

Obstructive lung disease in the form of asthma, chronic bronchitis or emphysema.

Conditions such as pulmonary edema, atelectasis, pulmonary fibrosis.

Patients who has received general anesthesia as well as post cardiac arrest patients
often require ventilatory support until they have recovered from the effects of the
anesthesia or the insult of an arrest.

20. Negative-pressure ventilators

Early negative-pressure ventilators were known as “iron lungs.”

The patient’s body was encased in an iron cylinder and negative pressure was
generated .

Intermittent short-term negative-pressure ventilation is sometimes used in patients
with chronic diseases.

The iron lung are still occasionally used today.

Positive-pressure ventilators are deliver gas to the patient under positive-pressure,
during the inspiratory phase.

2- Synchronized intermittent
mandatory ventilation (SIMV)

23. 
ventilator provides the patient with a pre-set tidal volume at a pre-set rate .

Patient may initiate a breath on his own, but the ventilator assists by
delivering a specified tidal volume to the patient. pt can initiate breaths that
are delivered at the preset tidal volume.

Pt. can breathe at a higher rate than the preset number of breaths/minute.

The total respiratory rate is determined by the number of spontaneous
inspiration initiated by the patient plus the number of breaths set on the
ventilator.

In A/C mode, a mandatory (or “control”) rate is selected.

If the patient wishes to breathe faster, pt. can trigger the ventilator and
receive a full-volume breath.

24. 
Often used as initial mode of ventilation

When the patient is too weak to perform the work of breathing (e.g.,
when emerging from anesthesia).
Disadvantages:

Hyperventilation,

25. 
The ventilator provides the patient with a pre-set number of
breaths/minute at a specified tidal volume and FiO2.

In between the ventilator-delivered breaths, the patient is able to
breathe spontaneously at his own tidal volume and rate with no
assistance from the ventilator.

However, unlike the A/C mode, any breaths taken above the set
rate are spontaneous breaths taken through the ventilator circuit .

The tidal volume of these breaths can vary drastically from the tidal volume
set on the ventilator, because the tidal volume is determined by the
patient’s spontaneous effort.

26. 
Adding pressure support during spontaneous breaths can minimize the
risk of increased work of breathing.

Ventilators breaths are synchronized with the patient spontaneous
breathe( no fighting).

Used to wean the patient from the mechanical ventilator.

Weaning is accomplished by gradually lowering the set rate and
allowing the patient to assume more work

27. Ingento EP & Drazen J: Mechanical Ventilators, in Hall JB, Scmidt GA, &
Wood LDH(eds.): Principles of Critical Care

28. 
Ventilation is completely provided by the mechanical ventilator with
a preset tidal volume, respiratory rate and oxygen concentration

Ventilator totally controls the patient’s ventilation i.e. the ventilator
initiates and controls both the volume delivered and the frequency
of breath.

Client does not breathe spontaneously.

Client can not initiate breathe

30. 
The PCV mode is used
◦ If compliance is decreased and the risk of barotrauma is high.
◦ It is used when the patient has persistent oxygenation problems
despite a high FiO2 and high levels of PEEP.

The inspiratory pressure level, respiratory rate, and inspiratory–
expiratory (I:E) ratio must be selected.

31. 
Sedation and the use of neuromuscular blocking agents are frequently
indicated, because any patient–ventilator asynchrony usually results in
profound drops in the SaO2.
This is especially true when inverse ratios are used. The “unnatural” feeling of
this mode often requires muscle relaxants to ensure patient–ventilator
synchrony.

Inverse ratio ventilation (IRV) mode reverses this ratio so that inspiratory
time is equal to, or longer than, expiratory time (1:1 to 4:1).

Inverse I:E ratios are used in conjunction with pressure control to improve
oxygenation by expanding stiff alveoli by using longer distending times,
thereby providing more opportunity for gas exchange and preventing
alveolar collapse.

32. 
The patient breathes spontaneously while the ventilator applies a predetermined amount of positive pressure to the airways upon inspiration.

Pressure support ventilation augments patient’s spontaneous breaths with
positive pressure boost during inspiration i.e. assisting each spontaneous
inspiration.

Helps to overcome airway resistance and reducing the work of breathing.

Indicated for patients with small spontaneous tidal volume and difficult to wean
patients.

Patient must initiate all pressure support breaths.

Pressure support ventilation may be combined with other modes such as
SIMV or used alone for a spontaneously breathing patient.

33. 
The patient’s effort determines the rate, inspiratory flow, and tidal
volume.

In PSV mode, the inspired tidal volume and respiratory rate must be
monitored closely to detect changes in lung compliance.

It is a mode used primarily for weaning from mechanical ventilation.

34. 
Constant positive airway pressure during spontaneous breathing

CPAP allows the nurse to observe the ability of the patient to
breathe spontaneously while still on the ventilator.

CPAP can be used for intubated and nonintubated patients.

It may be used as a weaning mode and for nocturnal ventilation
(nasal or mask CPAP)

35. 


Treat pulmonary edema ( pressure help expulsion of fluids from

37. 
BiPAP is a noninvasive form of mechanical ventilation provided by
means of a nasal mask or nasal prongs, or a full-face mask.

The system allows the clinician to select two levels of positivepressure support:

An inspiratory pressure support level (referred to as IPAP)

An expiratory pressure called EPAP (PEEP/CPAP level).

for pt. With hypovolemia due to blood loss.

Albumin containing colloid fluid are appropriate for pt. With hypovolemia
associated with hypoalbuminemia.

43. 
Regular oral and teeth cleaning should be done at lest 12 hrly.

Prevent aspiration
1. Positioning—lateral position with head turned to the side or side-lying.
Position back of head on a pillow so that the face tips forward and fluid/
secretions will flow out of the mouth, not back into the throat.
Place a bulb syringe or suction machine with suction equipment nearby.
Care of eyes :

Clean from inner to outer conthus with wet (normal saline), warm cotton
ball or compress.

Use artificial tear solution or normal saline every four hour, if blink reflex is
absent.

Care for eye glass, contact lens.

44. 
Repositioning the ETT move it to a different location on the patient’s mouth avoiding
areas of breakdown and ulceration.

Skin preparation is required when using tapes or devices with adhesives. This may
include:
-Shaving (consent may be required before shaving),
cleaning and drying.
- Preparation with skin prep solutions such antiseptic.

If an ETT requires advancing or withdrawing, the patient’s oral airway should be
suctioned and then the cuff deflated prior to moving the ETT.

ETT cuff pressure is monitored to minimize the risk of tracheal necrosis and to
reduce aspiration of oral secretions into the airway.

45. 
ETT cuff pressure should be maintained at a minimum of 25 cmH2O to reduce the risk of
secretions leaking into the trachea and bronchi.

Maximum cuff pressure is 30 cmH20 to avoid the risk of tracheal necrosis.

The measuring device connects to the one way valve of the ETT pilot balloon and the
pressure is read at end of inspiration.

ETT suctioning should be performed at least 4-6hrly to ensure airway patency.

Perform hand hygiene prior to using the in-line suction.

Always wear gloves and eye protection.

46. 
Suctioning is the mechanical aspiration of pulmonary secretions from a
patient with an artificial airway in place.

Nosocomial infections
◦ occur in approximately 10% of ICU patients at a rate of 21 to 25
infections per 1000 ICU patient-days.
◦ The most common nosocomial infections in medical ICUs are
urinary tract infections (31%), followed by pneumonia (27%) and
primary bloodstream infections (19%).

50. 
VAP is defined as pneumonia developing in mechanically ventilated patients
after more than 48 hours of intubation, with no clinical evidence suggesting
the presence or probable development of pneumonia at the time of initial
intubation.

VAP is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in mechanically ventilated,
critically ill patients.

51. 
The incidence of VAP is estimated to be 10% to 25%, and the estimated mortality
rate from VAP is 5% to 27%. VAP also increases hospital length of stay and cost.

The diagnosis of VAP is challenging. presumptive diagnosis of pneumonia is
made when fever, leukocytosis, purulent secretions, and a new infiltrate on chest
radiography develop and when bacteria are isolated by nonquantitative analysis of
endotracheal aspirates.

These nonspecific diagnostic criteria may lead to unnecessary antibiotic use,
increased hospital cost, emergence of resistant microorganisms, and a potential
delay in diagnosis of the true cause of the fever.

53. 
Early onset VAP is caused by Streptococcus pneumonia, H influenza,
Moraxella catarrhalis and methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus
aureus (MSSA).

Late onset VAP is caused commonly by Pseudomonas aeruginosa,
Acinetobacter, Enterobacter species and methicillin
resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

VAP is frequently polymicrobial and gram negative bacilli are the
predominant organism’s isolated.

54. 
Prevention of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia
Gastric pH
 The use of sucralfate, an agent that does not increase gastric pH, may be preferable
to H2 receptor antagonists or proton pump inhibitors. Three studies found decreased
mortality rates in patients treated with sucralfate rather than H 2 receptor antagonists or
proton pump inhibitors.
Positioning
 Positioning of the head of the bed at 30 degrees is the most cost-effective intervention
for prevention of VAP. This position results in decreased gastroesophageal reflux.
Subglottic Aspiration of Secretions
 Pooling of secretions above the endotracheal tube cuff may increase the volume of
bacteria that enter the airways. Removal of these secretions by continuous aspiration
in the subglottic region requires the use of a specialized endotracheal tube with a
second lumen that permits a suction catheter to exit proximal to the endotracheal tube
cuff.

55. 
Aminoglycosides and quinolones are bactericidal in a concentration dependent
fashion.

In addition these agents have a prolonged postantibiotic effect (PAE), allowing
them to suppress bacterial growth even after their concentrations are below
target level.

vancomycin and the beta-lactams (penicillins, cephalosporins, aztreonam) are
also bactericidal but act in a time-dependent rather than in a concentrationdependent fashion, do not possess significant postantibiotic effect against gram
negative bacilli,

Generally speaking, empirical therapy should be commenced once NP is
suspected and altered as microbiologic data become available

56. 
Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections

It is estimated that more than 5 million CVCs are inserted every year in the United States.
Unfortunately, more than 15% of patients have complications from these lines.
Infectious complications are reported to occur in 5% to 26% of patients with CVCs.
The mortality rate attributable to CRBSIs ranges from 12% to 25%,








Prevention of Central Venous Catheter Infections
Antibiotic-Impregnated Central Venous Catheters
Examine the efficacy of antimicrobial-impregnated catheters in an effort to decrease the
incidence.
CVCs coated with the antimicrobials chlorhexidine and silver sulfadiazine or impregnated
with the antibiotics minocycline and rifampin are commercially available.
Chlorhexidine/sulfadiazine-coated catheters lowered the rate of bloodstream infection
from 7.6 to 1.6 infections per 1000 catheter-days (P = .03).

57. 







The use of antimicrobial-impregnated catheters should be considered in all
critically ill patients who require long-term (at least 3 days) indwelling central
venous access.
Immunocompetent patients who will be catheterized for less than 3 or 4
days may not need these catheters because infection is rare during this
period.
Sterile Technique
Optimal sterile technique is the most cost-effective means of reducing the
incidence of central line colonization and CRBSI.
Use of maximal sterile barrier precautions such as mask, cap, sterile gown,
sterile gloves, and a large sterile drape.
Use of chlorhexidine solution for skin decontamination reduces the risk of
catheter colonization and is therefore preferred over the use of povidoneiodine solution.
Ultrasound Guidance
With the development of portable, inexpensive ultrasound machines, for
reducing the complications associated with central venous cannulation .

58. 
Ultrasound guidance has been shown to reduce the number of complications,
unsuccessful attempts, and time required for insertion of an internal jugular vein catheter,

Clinical trials assessing whether use of ultrasound can decrease the incidence of central
venous line infections remain to be completed, but this technology can decrease the
number of attempts required to locate the internal jugular vein and should be used
routinely when available.
Duration
 The need for a CVC should be reassessed daily, and unnecessary catheters should be
removed because the probability of catheter-related infections increases with time.

The risk of infection with catheterization stays relatively low until about the fifth to seventh
days and then increases.
