The answer is False: Erythroplakias are precancerous white patches that can be found in the mouths of smokeless tobacco users.

Explanation: Erythroplakia refers to a red patch in the mouth that cannot be attributed to any other cause. It is considered a precancerous lesion, meaning it has the potential to develop into cancer. The term "erythro" means red, which is indicative of the appearance of these patches. On the other hand, leukoplakia refers to white patches in the mouth, which can also be precancerous. Therefore, the statement in the question is incorrect because erythroplakias are red patches, not white.

The physician admitted the patient to the respiratory intensive care unit (ICU) to be monitored closely. His vital capacity was 3500 mL on admission but decreased to 700 mL during the subsequent 48 hours. During this time, he also developed mild difficulties in swallowing. Shortly after this development, the pulse oximeter alarm sounded and the physician was notified. Because the physician anticipated that the patient would require respiratory assistance for several weeks, a tracheostomy was performed using local anesthesia, and the patient was connected to a ventilator with an FIO2 of 0.3, intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV) rate 12 / min, VT 0.8 L, and pressure support ventilation (PSV) mode. Twenty minutes later, his blood gas values were pH 7.43, PaCO2 38, HCO3- 23, PaO2 104, and SaO2 97%. The respiratory care practitioner entered a SOAP in the patient's chart. Based on these clinical data, how would you SOAP this patient?
