Capnography has made steady inroads in the ICU and is increasingly used for all patients
who are mechanically ventilated. There is growing recognition that capnography is rich in …

The development of a human respiration carbon dioxide (CO 2) measurement device to
evaluate cardiorespiratory status inside and outside a hospital setting has proven to be a …

Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are two obstructive pulmonary
conditions that commonly require evaluation and management in the emergency …

Carbon dioxide (CO2) monitoring is vital during mechanical ventilation of newborn infants,
as morbidity increases when CO2 levels are inappropriate. Our aim was to review the uses …

Currently, carbon dioxide (CO 2 waveforms measured by capnography are used to estimate
respiratory rate and end-tidal CO 2 (EtCO 2) in the clinic. However, the shape of the CO 2 …

In November 2019, the novel coronavirus disease COVID-19 was reported in Wuhan city,

Capnography, routinely used in operating rooms and intensive care units, reveals essential
information on lung ventilation and ventilation–perfusion matching. Mainstream …

Background and objective Lung biopsies from patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis
(HP) have demonstrated small airway (SA) involvement, but there is no information …

Introduction The slope of phase III of the capnogram (S III) relates to progressive emptying of
the alveoli, a ventilation/perfusion mismatch, and ventilation inhomogeneity. S III depends …
