The Bonsai delivers its oxygen bolus during what part of the breathing cycle?
Correct Answer
D. D. First ½ of inspiration
Explanation
During the first half of inspiration, the Bonsai delivers its oxygen bolus. This means that the Bonsai releases a concentrated amount of oxygen during the initial phase of inhaling. This timing ensures that the patient receives a higher concentration of oxygen when they need it the most, at the beginning of the breathing cycle.

How does a single lumen conserver differ from a dual lumen conserver?
Correct Answer
B. B. Single lumen conserver uses a single lumen cannula to both sense a breath and deliver the oxygen
Explanation
A single lumen conserver differs from a dual lumen conserver in that it uses a single lumen cannula to both sense a breath and deliver the oxygen. This means that the single lumen conserver combines the functions of sensing a breath and delivering oxygen into one cannula, while the dual lumen conserver likely has separate lumens for these functions.
8.
-
The Bonsai uses uniform pulse for the oxygen bolus delivery?
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
The Bonsai uses uniform pulse for the oxygen bolus delivery. This means that the oxygen is delivered in a consistent and regular manner, ensuring a steady supply of oxygen to the user. This is beneficial because it helps maintain a stable oxygen concentration in the user's bloodstream, providing them with the necessary oxygen support they need.

The Oxymizer is a disposable conserver
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
The statement is true because the Oxymizer is indeed a disposable conserver. A disposable conserver is a device that helps conserve oxygen by delivering it in a more efficient manner. The Oxymizer is designed to be used with oxygen therapy systems and it works by capturing and storing exhaled oxygen, which can then be inhaled during the next breath. Being disposable means that it is intended for single-use and should be discarded after a certain period of time or when it becomes worn out. Therefore, the correct answer is true.
11.
-
There are 2 types of Oxymizer’s they are called what?
Correct Answer
B. B. Mustache & Pendant
Explanation
The correct answer is b. Mustache & Pendant. This is because the question is asking about the two types of Oxymizer's, and the options provided are different types of names. The correct answer is Mustache & Pendant, as these are the names given to the two types of Oxymizer's.

-
You can use the Oxymizer with which of the following types of oxygen equipment?
Correct Answer
D. D. All of the above
Explanation
The Oxymizer can be used with all types of oxygen equipment, including liquid units, concentrators, and cylinders. This means that regardless of the specific type of oxygen equipment a person is using, they can still use the Oxymizer to deliver oxygen effectively.
13.
-
The Oxymizer delivers up to what savings ratio?
Correct Answer
C. C. 4:1
Explanation
The Oxymizer delivers up to a savings ratio of 4:1. This means that for every 4 liters of oxygen delivered, only 1 liter is actually used by the patient. This indicates that the Oxymizer is able to deliver oxygen efficiently, resulting in significant savings in oxygen usage.

-
The Evolution is what type of conserver?
Correct Answer
B. B. Electronic
Explanation
The correct answer is b. Electronic. This means that the Evolution is an electronic conserver.

-
More pneumatic conservers are sold than electronic conservers
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
The statement suggests that there are more sales of pneumatic conservers compared to electronic conservers. This implies that pneumatic conservers are more popular or in higher demand than electronic conservers. Therefore, the correct answer is true.

-
The primary reason conservers have a continuous flow option is:
Correct Answer
C. C. In the event the conserver fails the patient still has access to oxygen
Explanation
The primary reason conservers have a continuous flow option is to ensure that the patient still has access to oxygen in case the conserver fails. This is important for the safety and well-being of the patient, as a failure in the conserver could result in a disruption of oxygen supply. By having a continuous flow option, the patient can continue to receive oxygen until the issue with the conserver is resolved.

How does uniform pulse differ from minute volume?
Correct Answer
B. B. Uniform pulse provides the same bolus size for every breath up to 40 breaths
Explanation
Uniform pulse differs from minute volume because it provides the same bolus size for every breath up to 40 breaths. Minute volume, on the other hand, refers to the total volume of air that is inhaled and exhaled in one minute. Therefore, uniform pulse and minute volume are not identical.

If the max oxygen output per minute is the same for two conservers, why would the one that uses uniform pulse be better clinically than the one using Minute Volume?
Correct Answer
B. B. Provides more oxygen than Minute Volume when patient is breathing faster so you oxygenate the patient more effectively
Explanation
The one that uses uniform pulse is better clinically than the one using Minute Volume because it provides more oxygen than Minute Volume when the patient is breathing faster. This allows for more effective oxygenation of the patient, ensuring that they receive an adequate supply of oxygen even during times of increased respiration.
