Respiratory evaluation through volumetric capnography among grade III obese and eutrophic individuals: a comparative study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Excess trunk body fat in obese individuals influences respiratory physiological function. The aims of this study were to compare volumetric capnography findings (VCap) between severely obese patients and normal-weight subjects and to assess ...

Digitization and Analysis of Capnography Using Image Processing Technique [PDF]
The study of carbon dioxide expiration is called capnometry. The graphical representation of capnometry is called capnography. There is a growing interest in the usage of capnography as the usage has expanded toward the study of metabolism, circulation ...

Volumetric or time-based capnography for excluding pulmonary embolism in outpatients? [PDF]
Summary. Background: Volumetric capnography is technically more demanding but theoretically more performant than the time-based alveolar deadspace fraction (PaCO(2)-EtCO(2))/PaCO(2) as bedside diagnostic tool for ruling-out pulmonary embolism (PE) in ...

Rationale of Dead Space Measurement by Volumetric Capnography
Dead space is the portion of a tidal volume that does not participate in gas exchange because it does not get in contact with blood flowing through the pulmonary capillaries.

Breath-by-breath assessment of acute pulmonary edema using electrical impedance tomography, spirometry and volumetric capnography in a sheep (Ovis Aries) model [PDF]
BackgroundThe bedside diagnosis of acute pulmonary edema is challenging. This study evaluated the breath-by-breath information from electrical impedance tomography (EIT), respiratory mechanics and volumetric capnography (VCap) to assess acute pulmonary ...
