Today, I've successfully passed my RT program exit exam and is waiting to be cleared to take the boards. I just want to thank you coach! You have helped me so much You've somehow made it very easy and simple to understand. Literally, a chapter that usually takes me hours to read and research, you explained in less than 20mins. How I wish I came across your channel since I started. I hope you'll keep making more videos especially breaking down TMC sample questions. You don't know how much you are helping build better RTs. Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
Hi Bernadeth. Thank you for the kind feedback. Super proud of you for completing your program. Also, I received your email and am preparing a video response. Stay tuned!
The high cuff pressure is relevant to an endobronchial intubation because your right main bronchus has a smaller diameter than your trachea, so would mean more pressure on the cuff as it has to squeeze into a tighter area. Is just an added bit of info to help guide you to the right answer imo.
This was an awesome video! I always see these 4 questions on every practice exam…. Always going to be a pneumo, always going to have a right mainstem, and you’ll always have an obstruction that causes high pips. The way you broke down the mucus plug answer really made sense. Another great video and make sure you read the whole question. You should do a break down on those patients with lobectomies, and selecting a proper tidal volume now that your lung surface area has changed. Your IBW is still the same but now you have to separate it out. I saw one of these questions on the NBRC… I used my anatomy and divided the total tidal volume in half to separate the 2 lungs and then remembered the right lung has 3 lobes and the left only has 2 lobes and then just went from there.
Love it. In a real life scenario you will also need to identify which details are important and what is the most likely problem. Critical thinking in a nut shell. Thank you
Hi coach, the extra detail of explanation always puts it together for me. The one word answers most always leave me with a question to fully understand. Super happy I found your channel ! Thank you !!
@@RespiratoryCoach this time it was easier for me. I took it a couple weeks ago and made a 85. Your videos helped me out tremendously. It made a huge difference for me because it was a lot I didn’t really know about certain stuff that helped me.!! Thank you very much.
Thank you for these videos on test taking. I have my CRT and taken the test 3 times. I can talk with you all day about this but when it comes to testing I always fall for the info that is not important, you have helped a lot in dissecting the questions. Would like to see more of this. Thanks again and keep up the good work.
Gold as always! I suppose if in pressure control we only get to rely on the volume generated and the accompanying other physiological details as you have discussed? Thanks!
Preciate you Coach!, I’ll be taking my test Wednesday. Looking forward to hitting RRT from just listening to your videos. I just listened to your PFT vids last night. Or early this morning.
@15:29. plateau pressure is also raised. so, i think this question is poorly framed. because increased plateau pressure signals problem with compliance
See that’s interesting because I was under the impression that if you set Vt by IBW, you would change rate before changing Vt since you have a narrower range of changes possible with Vt before you start getting into over distention and volutrauma and that would include pretty much all modes where you set Vt and RR yourself.

If all my teachers along the way would have taught with such clarity and enthusiasm...I might have gone a long way....
Brilliant!
It's never too late! GO BE GREAT!
Amazing that you take the time to reply to everyone!

Hi Shellie. I appreciate you watching and leaving this comment!
You are the best teacher ever. I thank you so much! This has really helped me get through a lot of questions.
Been an RT IN SLEEP MEDICINE for 10.years and this review is very helpful
Your teaching is very valuable to ICU nurses who are trying to get their head around troubleshooting on vents. Thank you for sharing your expertise.

AMAZING VIDEO!!!!!!!!!! Im taking my FP-C and your videos help understand A lot of respiratory misunderstandings! Thanks!

Absolutely! Thank you for that addition!

Hi coach, the extra detail of explanation always puts it together for me. The one word answers most always leave me with a question to fully understand. Super happy I found your channel ! Thank you !!

Good question! Either on a cxr or you can palpate that tracheal rings.
Thank you for your help!1😂coach u are awesome
Hi Coach, can you make video about waveforms based on the disease process.
I'm looking to strengthen Initiation Modification of Intervention s and Troubleshooting and infection control can you help?
obstruction of ETT causes high reoccurring cycling pressures.
Dear Coach... could u clear abt function of aperture bar in Laryngeal mask airway ..
Dear coach how much o2 can flow through t piece and why and plz make detail video on t piece and it's mechanism plz reply I'm an icu tech.
So just out of curiosity, what would you answer if you got the first question? Or will that not happen since all the answers could be correct?
Can you do a video on peep vs non peep compensation ventilators? Or just what that means? Or if anyone can help :)
@15:29. plateau pressure is also raised. so, i think this question is poorly framed. because increased plateau pressure signals problem with compliance
So have a question i thought if you are in A/C mode to not change the rate but to change vt
See that’s interesting because I was under the impression that if you set Vt by IBW, you would change rate before changing Vt since you have a narrower range of changes possible with Vt before you start getting into over distention and volutrauma and that would include pretty much all modes where you set Vt and RR yourself.
