End Tidal Carbon Dioxide Monitoring in the Acute Post Extubation Period in the Pediatric Intensive Care Setting
… Care Unit setting can be prevented by use of End Tidal C02 monitoring during the acute post extubation period. The primary goal of this project is to increase the use of ETC02 NC over regular NC after extubating patients by 5% quarterly. The secondary goal is to decrease the percentage of …

Increasing staff comfort in performing conscious sedation during brachytherapy : a teaching quality improvement project
… reversal agents, rescue equipment, and end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) monitoring. Workshop efficacy was measured by comparing pre- and post-workshop reported comfort levels of the providers via survey. Results: Post-intervention survey results show an overall increase in comfort levels …

The relationship between markers of disease severity in obstructive sleep apnea patients and hemodynamic and respiratory function during graded exercise testing
… the following: peak oxygen consumption (VO2pk), end-tidal carbon dioxide production (PETCO2), end-tidal oxygen pressure (PETO2), heart rate (HR), blood pressure (systolic = SBP and diastolic = DBP), rate pressure product (RPP), TPR and its derivatives including MAP and Qc, in OSA patients. A …

Ventilatory Mechanics in Endurance Athletes
… for exercise. However, upon further research, endurance athletes have been found to reach their maximum ventilation, demonstrating an insufficiency of the lungs to accommodate the demands of highly demanding endurance sport. This knowledge has inspired researchers to look further into the …

Ultrasound as a non-invasive diagnostic tool in paediatric neurosurgery : relationship between the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) and intracranial pressure (ICP)
… pulse rate, temperature, respiratory rate and end tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) level were recorded at the time of ONSD measurement. The ONSD measurements were analysed for repeatability, intra- and inter-observer variability as well for correlation between images acquired in different planes …

Neurovascular implications of life-long exposure to contact in rugby union; the link to cognition
… of cerebrovascular reactivity to changes in end tidal carbon dioxide (CVRCO2RANGE) was assessed using hypercapnia (CVRCO2HYPER) and hypocapnia (CVRCO2HYPO). Cognition was assessed via neuropsychometric tests and screened for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) using the Montreal Cognitive …
