NEW RPSGT EXAM- Study Guide and Practice Test Latest 2022 Graded A+ The purpose of an intentional mask leak is to... ✔✔Wash out CO2 and prevent rebreathing Recommended guidelines state that HSV can be considered when.... ✔✔Cheyne Stokes and central Apneas have not been eliminated. What is aerophagia? ✔✔The swallowing of air What is maxillomandibular advancement? ✔✔Treatment that involves cutting and advancing the upper and lower jaw bones; enlarging and stabilizing the posterior airway. What is the PRIMARY function of the EPAP setting? ✔✔To eliminate desaturations and arousals. According to guidelines, how many Hypopneas need to occur in peds pts prior to increasing pressure? ✔✔1 What are the AASM guidelines for supplemental O2 during PAP studies? ✔✔1lmp during PAP titration when SPO2 is less than or equal to 88% for 5 or more minutes and in the absence of obstructive events. If a pts Apneas are fixed at 10cm, but Hypopneas and snoring still occur at 16cm, what levels of BiLevel should be used? ✔✔IPAP: 14 EPAP: 10 Which of the following can reduce the effectiveness of CPAP and why: Nasal spray, Alcohol, Anti depressants. ✔✔Alcohol: impairs arousal response which can lead to longer than normal events and severe desats. Inhibits upper airway activity What syndrome would a pt with COPD and OSA have? ✔✔Overlap syndrome What are hypoxemia and hypercapnia? ✔✔Hypoxemia: very low 02 in the blood Hypercapnia: very high CO2 in the blood.

It can be identified by the morphology of an irregularly irregular ventricular rhythm associated with replacement of consistent P waves by rapid oscillations that vary in size, shape, and timing ✔✔Atrial fibrillation The stage that is the greatest portion of the epoch ✔✔The stage that is the greatest portion of the epoch What is the best response when a patient asks the technologist if they have sleep apnea and will need to wear a CPAP mask? ✔✔Provide the patient with educational material about sleep apnea Which of the following is the MOST L
