Tofranil (imipramine): 1  Is generally used in children older than 6 years. 2  Has a success rate of 10 to 50 percent. 3  Starts working in a few days. 4  Is relatively inexpensive. 5  Will likely stop working when the child stops taking the medication.
The plateau pressure is the pressure applied (in positive pressure ventilation) to the small airways and alveoli. It is believed that control of the plateau pressure is important, as excessive stretch of alveoli has been implicated as the cause of ventilator induced lung injury.
(see state postulate)NOTEWhile the vapor pressure is similar to the saturation pressure, thevapor pressure refers to the pressure in a mixture of components(i.e., the total pressure is higher).OUTCOME:Describe the difference between the saturation and vapor pressures.
