A mechanical lung model was used to investigate the effect of varying carbon dioxide production and deadspace on the end-tidal carbon dioxide levels achieved during mechanical ventilation when using the Bain, Humphrey ADE, and circle systems. Both factors had significant influence on end-tidal cardon dioxide concentration and could result in values in excess of those considered acceptable in clinical practice. The implications of the results are discussed.

AbstractIn the follow-up of ventilation, invasive blood gas analysis and noninvasive monitoring of end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) are used. We aimed to investigate the relationship between capillary partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PcCO2) levels and ETCO2 and also to investigate ETCO2's predictive feature of PcCO2 levels. This study included 28 female and 30 male pediatric patients; 28 patients were type-1 respiratory failure (RF), 16 patients were acute respiratory distress syndrome, and 14 patients were type-2 RF. Our results showed a significant correlation between ETCO2 and PcCO2. Although the strength of the correlation was weak throughout the measurements, the strength of this correlation increased significantly in type-2 RF.

Two cases of air embolism in patients anaesthetized in the sitting position are described. The emboli, though producing no signs and therefore probably small, were readily detected by the fall in the end tidal CO2 fraction. Techniques for the detection of air emboli are briefly reviewed.
