| 1. | Increasing the tidal volume will also tend to increase the mean airway pressure.
|
| 2. | The tidal volume varies depending on the resistance and elastance of the respiratory system.
|
| 3. | The amount processed during each breath depends on the tidal volume of that breath.
|
| 4. | The longer, deeper inspiratory flows by the patient will result in a larger tidal volume.
|
| 5. | The low tidal volume aims to minimize alveolar overdistention and the PEEP minimizes cyclic atelectasis.
|
| 6. | The ventilator varies the tidal volume and pressure based on the patient's work of breathing.
|
| 7. | :: During exertion, tidal volume increases before respiratory rate.
|
| 8. | Increasing the % Inspiratory Time will also increase the volume of gas moved or tidal volume.
|
| 9. | These tidal volumes are 12 times greater than the flows in the largest New Zealand rivers.
|
| 10. | In addition, the tidal volume at rest in an individual is 1 / 10 the lung volume.
