A 45-year-old, 73-inch-tall, 200 lb male patient is admitted to the emergency department with an exacerbation of myasthenia gravis. The respiratory therapist assesses the patient and finds the patient’s maximum inspiratory pressure is -15 cm H2O and his vital capacity is 1050 mL. It is decided that the patient requires ventilatory support. The most appropriate ventilator settings for this patient are which of the following?

What fractional inspired oxygen (FIO2) setting should be set on the ventilator when the patient currently has a partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) of 53 mm Hg while receiving 50% oxygen and the desired PaO2 is 90 mm Hg?
