The following are some respiratory therapy formulas that you learned in RT school, have
probably since forgotten, but could still find useful from time to time:
• a. Normal = 60-100
• b. less than 60 = lungs becoming less compliant
• c. greater than 25 is acceptable
• d. less than 25 is unacceptable
• normal=20%
• if greater than 20 an increase in PEEP is indicated
22. Suction:Adult=100-120,Child=80-100,Infant=60-80
23. Pt.WOB=less than 0.8=normal, measures effectiveness of rise time and sensitivity.
Measured in spont. mode.
