Use this information to answer the four questions below: A 58 kg patient is receiving mechanical ventilation via the PB 980 in the ICU. Ventilator and ABG results are:         ABG:  pH 7.30/ PaCO2 50/ PaO2 220/ HCO3 23                        Mode: PC-AC                                    FiO2:   0.80                        Mandatory Rate: 16 bpm                 Total rate:  16 bpm                        PEEP: 12 cmH2O                               Ti:  0.9 sec                        Exhaled Vt:  400 mL                          Pinsp: 17 cmH2O What is the static compliance? [staticcompliance] Calculate the what the Vt will be if the Pinsp was decreased to 15 cmH2O. [tidalvolume] What settings change would be best to correct the PaCO2 to normal level? [correctPaCO2] What settings change would you recommend to achieve a PaO2 in normal range? [correctPaO2]
