End-Tidal Partial Pressure of CO2 for Estimating Arterial Partial Pressure of CO2 during Inhalation Anesthesia in Dogs

End-tidal CO2 monitoring during anesthesia.

Non-invasive assessment of fluid responsiveness by changes in partial end-tidal CO2 pressure during a passive leg-raising maneuver

BACKGROUND The passive leg-raising (PLR) maneuver provides a dynamic assessment of fluid responsiveness inducing a reversible increase in cardiac preload. Since its effects are sudden and transitory, a continuous cardiac output (CO) monitoring is required to appropriately assess the hemodynamic response of PLR. On the other hand, changes in partial end-tidal CO2 pressure (PETCO2) have been demo...

Effect of CO2 Partial Pressure on the Thermal Decomposition Kinetics of Zinc Carbonate Hydroxide (TECHNICAL NOTE)

In this work, the effect of carbon dioxide partial pressure on the calcination kinetics of high purity zinc carbonate hydroxide has been studied. Non-isothermal analysis has been performed on samples at different CO2 partial pressures by TGA and DTA. It has been found that the calcination behaviour of this material corresponds to the shrinking core model and the reaction mechanism is phase boun...

End-tidal to arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure difference during craniotomy in anaesthetised patients.

This study to evaluate the relationship between end-tidal carbon dioxide pressure (ETCO2) and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) included 35 patients between the ages of 18 and 65 years, ASA grade 1 and 2, who had elective craniotomies. Measurements of PaCO2 and ETCO2 were taken simultaneously: 1) 10 minutes after induction of general anaesthesia, 2) after cranium opening prior...

Metabolic effects of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) insufflation during laparoscopic surgery: changes in pH, arterial partial Pressure of Carbon Dioxide (PaCo2) and End Tidal Carbon Dioxide (EtCO2).

Background Acid base alterations occur during laparoscopy with carbon dioxide insufflation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of low tidal volume ventilation on acid base status during pneumoperitonium. Materials and Methods 30 patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery under General Anaesthesia were ventilated with tidal volume of 6 ml/kg and respiratory rate of 12 breat...
