Things We Do for No Reason™: Arterial blood gas testing to screen for hypercarbic respiratory failure

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Venous blood gases (VBGs) are safe and effective at screening for hypercarbic respiratory failure. Multiple studies have validated that a VBG with a PvCO2 less than 45 reliably rules out hypercarbia. The use of VBGs for the initial screening of hypercarbia when hypercarbic respiratory failure is suspected can reduce the overall use of arterial

A high‐altitude thermal infrared method for estimating moose abundance and demography in Rocky Mountain National Park, USA

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To
