He/she can breathe as much or as little as he wants beyond what the ventilator will breathe for him.

SIMV stands for synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation.

can say a more of control form of ventilation.

With the help of SIMV, we set the rate, set either volume or pressure, and add in pressure support.

The role of SIMV is that it provides additional inspiratory pressure which doesn't let the patient work hard and also enable better oxygenation and a speedy recovery.

using SIMV is not a piece of cake, this can be a challenge to understand, as it is usually a combination of control, assisted and spontaneous breaths and to check it requires skills.

lubasha [3.4K]

During pregnancy, the form of estrogen that predominates is produced by the placenta, and may be useful in prenatal screening is Human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG).

Human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG) hormone is only produced during pregnancy. It is produced predominantly in the placenta. Levels of the hormone hCG, found in the mother's blood and urine, rise greatly during the first month of pregnancy.

hCG can detect the pregnancy  ten days after conception. It is the earliest method to check the pregnancy.  It also helps to detect the correct age of the fetus and the problems related to the pregnancy like ectopic pregnancies, miscarriages etc.

1) The order reads Heparin 20,000 U (units) in 500 mL sodium chloride 0.9% to infuse
zysi [14]

Answer:

According to the order, to administer 5 U/hr of the Heparin solution, 0.125 ml/hr should be administered.

Explanation:

Heparin is an anticoagulant that is administered parenterally, subcutaneously or intravenously.

If 20000 U are diluted in a 500 ml solution, to pass 5 U/hr to the patient, it must be established how many milliliters must be passed in 1 hour.

Knowing that the concentration of Heparin in the sodium chloride solution is 20000 in 500 ml, which is equivalent to 40 U/ml, the calculation is made:

40 U ------------ 1 ml

5 OR ------------ X

X = (5 X 1)/ 40

X = 0.125 ml /hr

<u>In the infusion pump, the amount of Heparin solution to be passed in 1 hour is 0.125 ml</u>.
