  • Title: Clinical use of volumetric capnography in mechanically ventilated patients.
    Author: Kremeier P, Böhm SH, Tusman G.
    Journal: J Clin Monit Comput; 2020 Feb; 34(1):7-16. PubMed ID: 31152285.
    Abstract:
    Capnography is a first line monitoring system in mechanically ventilated patients. Volumetric capnography supports noninvasive and breath-by-breath information at the bedside using mainstream CO2 and flow sensors placed at the airways opening. This volume-based capnography provides information of important body functions related to the kinetics of carbon dioxide. Volumetric capnography goes one step forward standard respiratory mechanics and provides a new dimension for monitoring of mechanical ventilation. The article discusses the role of volumetric capnography for the clinical monitoring of mechanical ventilation.
