Resistance of Colorimetric Carbon Dioxide Detectors Commonly Utilized in Neonates.
BACKGROUND Colorimetric end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) detectors can identify airway obstruction during noninvasive ventilation and successful intubation during newborn resuscitation. The resistance of these devices is not well described, and the information provided by manufacturers is incomplete. METHODS We compared the resistance of 3 colorimetric ETCO2 detectors (Neo-StatCO2, Pedi-Cap, ...
متن کاملQuestion 2 Should carbon dioxide detectors be used to check correct placement of endotracheal tubes in preterm and term neonates?
SCENARIO The Pedi-Cap device (Covidien, Mansfi eld, Massachusetts, USA) is frequently used in neonatal resuscitation to check the position of the endotracheal (ET) tube in term and preterm neonates. As a paediatric trainee having worked in various regions of the UK you note a huge variability in this practice. Clinical assessment of chest expansion and air entry, with improvement in saturations...
متن کاملVolume-targeted ventilation and arterial carbon dioxide in neonates.
OBJECTIVES To review the arterial carbon dioxide tensions (PaCO(2)) in newborn infants ventilated using synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV) in volume guarantee mode (using the Dräger Babylog 8000+) with a unit policy targeting tidal volumes of approximately 4 mL/kg. METHODS Data on ventilator settings and arterial PaCO(2) levels were collected on all arterial blood gases (A...
متن کاملTranscutaneous carbon dioxide for short-term monitoring of neonates.
We studied transcutaneous pCO2 monitoring in 70 neonates, most of them premature with respiratory distress syndrome. Measurements were at 44 degrees C. Calibration drift was large in some instances. Least squares linear regression analyses of transcutaneous pCO2 (y) vs arterial pCO2 (x) in kilopascals showed, for all observations (n = 516), for one observation randomly selected from each patien...
متن کاملDeposition of carbon nanotubes in commonly used sample filter media
There is no single standard technique or methodology to characterize the size, structure, number, and chemical composition of airborne carbon nanotubes. Existing analytical instruments and analytical techniques for evaluating nanoparticle concentrations cannot simultaneously provide morphology, state of agglomeration, surface area, mass, size distribution and chemical composition data critical...
