A Novel Approach for the Detection and Severity Grading of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Based on Transformed Volumetric Capnography [PDF]
BioengineeringChronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), as the third leading cause of death worldwide, is a major global health issue. The early detection and grading of COPD are pivotal for effective treatment. Traditional spirometry tests, requiring considerable

Novel volumetric capnography indices measure ventilation inhomogeneity in cystic fibrosis [PDF]
ERJ Open Research, 2022 Background Volumetric capnography (VCap) is a simpler alternative to multiple-breath washout (MBW) to detect ventilation inhomogeneity in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). However, its diagnostic performance is influenced by breathing dynamics.

Retrospective validation of a new volumetric capnography parameter for the exclusion of pulmonary embolism at the emergency department [PDF]
ERJ Open Research, 2018 Volumetric capnography might be used to exclude pulmonary embolism (PE) without the need for computed tomography pulmonary angiography. In a pilot study, a new parameter (CapNoPE) combining the amount of carbon dioxide exhaled per breath (carbon dioxide ...

Pathophysiology of gas exchange impairment in extreme prematurity: Insights from combining volumetric capnography and measurements of ventilation/perfusion ratio [PDF]
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023 BackgroundInfants born extremely preterm often suffer from respiratory disease and are invasively ventilated. We aimed to test the hypothesis that gas exchange in ventilated extremely preterm infants occurs both at the level of the alveoli and via mixing
