Supplemental oxygen (3 L/minute) trended toward reducing hypoxia in adult study patients; however, the 10% difference observed was not statistically significant and was below our a priori 20% threshold.
ETCO(2) can be successfully measured in all children and is significantly lower in children with acute exacerbations of asthma compared with healthy control subjects.
The relationship between end-tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PETCO2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and blood pH in isoflurane-anesthetized raptors was evaluated. PaCO2 and pH were determined in serial arterial...
Endtidal CO(2) measurement provides a reasonable reflection of blood CO(2) values if the expired gas-sampling catheter is taped in place after assuring a good waveform.
Hyperventilation has been suggested as a concomitant and possible maintaining factor that may contribute to the symptom pattern of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).
