Transcutaneous PCO<sub>2</sub> for Exercise Gas Exchange Efficiency in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
نویسندگان
چکیده
Gas exchange inefficiency and dynamic hyperinflation contributes to exercise limitation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is also characterized by an elevated fraction of physiological dead space (VD/VT). Noninvasive methods for accurate VD/VT assessment during patients are lacking. The current study sought compare transcutaneous PCO2 (TcPCO2) with the gold standard—arterial (PaCO2)—and other available (end tidal CO2 Jones equation) estimating incremental COPD. Ten COPD completed a symptom limited cycle exercise. TcPCO2 was measured heated electrode on ear-lobe. Radial artery blood collected at rest, unloaded cycling (UL) every minute recovery. Ventilation gas were breath-by-breath. Bland-Altman analysis examined agreement calculated using PaCO2, TcPCO2, end-tidal (PETCO2) estimated PaCO2 equation (PaCO2-Jones). Lin’s Concordance Correlation Coefficient (CCC) assessed. 114 measurements obtained from 10 subjects. bias between 0.86 mmHg upper lower limit ranging ?2.28 3.99 mmHg. rest r2=0.907 (p < 0.001; CCC = 0.941) vs. r2=0.958 0.0001; 0.967). PaCO2-Jones PETCO2 r2=0.755, 0.755, 0.832, 0.718) calculation (r2=0.793, 0.610; p 0.760, 0.448), respectively. results support accuracy reflect calculate exercise, but not recovery, patients, enabling improved noninvasive testing.

Effects of Pentoxifylline on Oxygenation and Exercise Tolerance in Patients with Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Background: It was hypothesized that the use of Pentoxifylline would increase arterial O2 saturation and increase exercise tolerance in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Methods: We tested this hypothesis in 23 patients with COPD and pulmonary hypertension. Patients were randomized to receive Pentoxifylline or placebo, each for a 12-week period, in a prospectiv...
متن کاملStatins and Pulmonary Hypertension in Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease
Chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) is a chronic multisystem disease with a considerable burden. One of its most common complications is pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH). It has been demonstrated that the development of PAH is correlated with decreased quality of life and survival. Different medications have been proposed for the treatment of PAH, among which one can name statins. Howeve...
متن کاملAspergillus colonization in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Background and Purpose: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been recognized as a risk factor for invasive aspergillosis. Airway colonization by Aspergillus species is a common feature of chronic pulmonary diseases. Nowadays, the incidence of COPD has increased in critically ill patients. The aim of the present study was to isolate and identify Aspergillus colonies in the respirator...
متن کاملExercise training in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Exercise limitation is a common and disturbing manifestation of COPD. The exercise intolerance is often caused by multiple interrelated anatomic and physiologic disturbances. Importantly, exercise tolerance can be improved despite the presence of fixed structural abnormalities in the lung. Exercise training, undertaken alone or in the context of comprehensive PR, improves exercise endurance and...

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with a chronic inflammatory response in airways and lung parenchyma that results in significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Cigarette smoking considered as an important risk factor plays a role in pathogenesis of disease. Pneumocystis jirovecii is an atypical opportunistic fungus that causes pneumonia in immunosuppressed host, al...
