1) A potential cause for hypoxemic failure from Type I respiratory failure is linked to:
A) Failure of the neurological system to stimulate respirations.
B) Muscular failure to move the air into and out of the lungs.
C) Skeletal alterations of the thoracic region that limit air movement.
D) Breakdown of oxygen transport from the alveolus to arterial flow.
Answer: D
Explanation: A) Type I respiratory failure is caused by a transportation issue between the lungs
and arterial blood flow. Type II is related to musculoskeletal changes that limit lung functioning
or suppress muscle action by drugs, such as narcotics. #1, #2, #3 are examples of Type II
respiratory failure causes.

2) Which of the following criteria is correct concerning acute lung injury (ALI)?
A) ALI's direct causes can include biochemical agents outside the pulmonary system.
B) ALI is a single organ dysfunction syndrome that has a chronic onset.
C) Symptoms of ALI include presence of little infiltrates on chest radiography.
D) Right ventricular failure occurs immediately with PA>O1P8 mm Hg. Answer: A
Explanation: A) This statement reflects indirect antecedents. Direct antecedents include direct
injury or assault on pulmonary tissue. #2 is incorrect. ALI is a multiorgan dysfunction syndrome
that has an acute onset. #3 is incorrect. Symptom of ALI includes the presence of bilateral
infiltrates due to leakage of fluid from the pulmonary capillaries into the alveoli. #4 is incorrect.
Left ventricular failure does not occur and PAOP<s1t8aymsm Hg.
