Comparison of end-tidal and arterial carbon dioxide measurements during anaesthesia with the laryngeal mask airway.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have confirmed the value of measurement of end-tidal carbon dioxide concentration as an indicator of arterial carbon dioxide tension during the use of the laryngeal mask airway in healthy patients breathing spontaneously. The mean difference between arterial and end-tidal carbon dioxide tension was 0.52 kPa (range 0-1.5 kPa), which is similar to the difference which has been reported when a tracheal tube has been used.

End-tidal Carbon Dioxide Measurements in Unintentional Non-Fire-Related Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Background: Poisoning with carbon monoxide occurs occasionally worldwide, and the gold diagnostic standard is to measure carboxyhemoglobin level in the blood. This study investigated the correlation between carboxyhemoglobin and the end-tidal carbon dioxide levels in 50 patients with carbon monoxide poisoning. Methods: We recruited 50 volunteer patients who had been admitted to the Emergency S...

BACKGROUND The authors tested the hypothesis that pressure support ventilation (PSV) provides more effective gas exchange than does unassisted ventilation with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in anesthetized adult patients treated using the laryngeal mask airway. METHODS Forty patients were randomized to two equal-sized crossover groups, and data were collected before surgery. In g...
متن کاملComparison of four methods for assessing airway sealing pressure with the laryngeal mask airway in adult patients.
We have compared four tests for assessing airway sealing pressure with the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) to test the hypothesis that airway sealing pressure and inter-observer reliability differ between tests. We studied 80 paralysed, anaesthetized adult patients. Four different airway sealing pressure tests were performed in random order on each patient by two observers blinded to each other's m...

Background and Aim: The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of thiopental sodium-midazolam combination on the stress response and hemodynamic changes between tracheal intubation and laryngeal mask airway insertion during airway management. Materials and Methods: In this clinical trial study, 70 patients ASA 1, 2 candidates for elective surgery were randomly divided into two groups o...

We have compared anaesthetic maintenance and emergence characteristics of propofol and sevoflurane with the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) at commonly used doses in 185 ASA I-II patients, in a randomized, prospective study. Anaesthesia was induced with propofol 2.5-3.5 mg kg-1 and fentanyl 1-3 micrograms kg-1. Neuromuscular blocking agents were not used. All patients underwent positive pressure ve...
