Oxygen therapy & respiratory calculations worksheet with answers

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). The gauge on a size H oxygen cylinder reads 1450 psi. Its cylinder factor is 3.14 L/psi. How many litres V can be used before the safe residual of 200 psi is reached?

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A patient receives oxygen by nasal cannula at 2 L/min. Using FiO₂ ≈ 21% + 4% per L/min, estimate the inspired oxygen FiO₂ in percent.

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A size H oxygen cylinder (factor 3.14 L/psi) reads 1050 psi and runs at 8 L/min. Keeping a safe residual of 200 psi, how many minutes t will it last? Round down to a whole minute.

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A size H oxygen cylinder (factor 3.14 L/psi) reads 1550 psi and runs at 5 L/min. Keeping a safe residual of 200 psi, how many minutes t will it last? Round down to a whole minute.

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A patient has Hb 120 g/L, SaO₂ 97%, PaO₂ 93 mmHg (12.4 kPa) and a cardiac output of 4.5 L/min. With CaO₂ = 1.34 × Hb (g/dL) × SaO₂ + 0.003 × PaO₂ (mmHg), find the oxygen delivery DO₂ = CaO₂ × CO × 10 in mL/min.

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A ventilated woman is 163 cm tall and weighs 63 kg. Lung-protective ventilation is set at 6 mL per kg of predicted body weight. Using PBW = 45.5 + 0.91 × (height cm − 152.4) kg, find the tidal volume V_T to the nearest mL.
