Abstract
Background Transcutaneous carbon dioxide tension (PtcCO2) measurement is a promising alternative to arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) measurement. PaCO2 measurement is invasive and intermittent, whereas PtcCO2 measurement is non-invasive and continuous. However, previous studies evaluating PtcCO2measurements did not include patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), who experience anticipated hemodynamic changes, particularly before and after valve placement. Therefore, we investigated whether PtcCO2 measurement could provide an alternative to PaCO2 measurement during transfemoral TAVR under monitored anesthesia care (MAC) with local anesthesia. Methodology We conducted a prospective observational study. We included all consecutive patients with severe aortic stenosis who were scheduled to undergo a transfemoral TAVR under MAC at our institution from November 1, 2020, to April 30, 2021. During the procedures, PaCO2 and PtcCO2 were concurrently monitored six times as a reference standard and index test, respectively. PtcCO2 was monitored continuously using a non-invasive earlobe sensor. The agreement between PtcCO2 and PaCO2 measurements was assessed using the Bland-Altman method, and the 95% limits of agreement were calculated. Based on previous studies, we determined that 95% limits of agreement of ±6.0 mmHg would be clinically acceptable to define PtcCO2 as an alternative to PaCO2. Results We obtained 88 measurement pairs from 15 patients. The lower and upper 95% limits of agreement between the PtcCO2 and PaCO2 measurements were -4.22 mmHg and 6.56 mmHg, respectively. Conclusions During TAVR under MAC with local anesthesia, PtcCO2 measurement could not provide a viable alternative to PaCO2 measurement to reduce high PaCO2 events. This study focused on comparing intraoperative periods before and after valve implantation. Therefore, further investigation is warranted to assess the impact of various factors, including the prosthetic valve type and the hemodynamic effects of balloon aortic valvuloplasty, on PtcCO2 measurement in TAVR.

Skin temperature influence on transcutaneous carbon dioxide (CO 2) conductivity and skin blood flow in healthy human subjects at the arm and wrist. Front Physiol 2024; 14:1293752. [PMID: 38321986 PMCID: PMC10846589 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2023.1293752] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective: present transcutaneous carbon dioxide (CO2)-tcpCO2-monitors suffer from limitations which hamper their widespread use, and call for a new tcpCO2 measurement technique. However, the progress in this area is hindered by the lack of knowledge in transcutaneous CO2 diffusion. To address this knowledge gap, this study focuses on investigating the influence of skin temperature on two key skin properties: CO2 permeability and skin blood flow. Methods: a monocentric prospective exploratory study including 40 healthy adults was undertaken. Each subject experienced a 90 min visit split into five 18 min sessions at different skin temperatures-Non-Heated (NH), 35, 38, 41, and 44°C. At each temperature, custom sensors measured transcutaneous CO2 conductivity and exhalation rate at the arm and wrist, while Laser Doppler Flowmetry (LDF) assessed skin blood flow at the arm. Results: the three studied metrics sharply increased with rising skin temperature. Mean values increased from the NH situation up to 44°C from 4.03 up to 8.88 and from 2.94 up to 8.11 m·s-1 for skin conductivity, and from 80.4 up to 177.5 and from 58.7 up to 162.3 cm3·m-2·h-1 for exhalation rate at the arm and wrist, respectively. Likewise, skin blood flow increased elevenfold for the same temperature increase. Of note, all metrics already augmented significantly in the 35-38°C skin temperature range, which may be reached without active heating-i.e. only using a warm clothing. Conclusion: these results are extremely encouraging for the development of next-generation tcpCO2 sensors. Indeed, the moderate increase (× 2) in skin conductivity from NH to 44°C tends to indicate that heating the skin is not critical from a response time point of view, i.e. little to no skin heating would only result in a doubled sensor response time in the worst case, compared to a maximal heating at 44°C. Crucially, a skin temperature within the 35-38°C range already sharply increases the skin blood flow, suggesting that tcpCO2 correlates well with the arterial paCO2 even at such low skin temperatures. These two conclusions further strengthen the viability of non-heated tcpCO2 sensors, thereby paving the way for the development of wearable transcutaneous capnometers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-flow nasal oxygenation is increasingly used during sedation procedures and general anesthesia in apneic patients. Transcutaneous CO2 (ptcCO2)-monitoring is used to monitor hypercapnia. This study investigated ptcCO2-monitoring during apneic oxygenation. METHODS We included 100 patients scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia in this secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial. Before surgery, we collected ptcCO2 measured by TCM4 and TCM5 monitors and arterial blood gas (ABG) measurements every two minutes during 15 minutes of apnea. Bland-Altman plots analyzed agreement between measurement slopes; linear mixed models estimated the different measuring method effect, and outlined differences in slope and offset between transcutaneous and arterial CO2 partial pressures. RESULTS Bland-Altman plots showed a bias in slope (95% confidence intervals) between ABG and TCM4-measurements of 0.05mmHg/min (-0.05 to 0.15), and limits of agreement were -0.88mmHg/min (-1.06 to -0.70) and 0.98mmHg/min (0.81 to 1.16). Bias between ABG and TCM5 was -0.14mmHg/min (-0.23 to -0.04), and limits of agreement were -0.98mmHg/min (-1.14 to -0.83) and 0.71mmHg/min (0.55 to 0.87). A linear mixed model (predicting the CO2-values) showed an offset between arterial and transcutaneous measurements of TCM4 (-15.2mmHg, 95%CI: -16.3 to -14.2) and TCM5 (-19.1mmHg, -20.1 to -18.0). Differences between the two transcutaneous measurements were statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS Substantial differences were found between the two transcutaneous measurement systems, and between them and ABG. Transcutaneous CO2 monitoring cannot replace arterial CO2-monitoring during apneic oxygenation. In clinical settings with rapidly changing CO2-values, arterial blood gas measurements are needed to reliably assess the CO2-partial pressure in blood.

Abstract
Continuously monitoring transcutaneous CO2 partial pressure is of crucial importance in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory and cardiac diseases. Despite significant progress in the development of CO2 sensors, their implementation as portable or wearable devices for real-time monitoring remains under-explored. Here, we report on the creation of a wearable prototype device for transcutaneous CO2 monitoring based on quantifying the fluorescence of a highly breathable CO2-sensing film. The developed materials are based on a fluorescent pH indicator (8-hydroxy-1,3,6-pyrenetrisulfonic acid trisodium salt or HPTS) embedded into hydrophobic polymer matrices. The film’s fluorescence is highly sensitive to changes in CO2 partial pressure in the physiological range, as well as photostable and insensitive to humidity. The device and medical-grade films are based on our prior work on transcutaneous oxygen-sensing technology, which has been extensively validated clinically.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the reliability, accuracy and precision of distal end-tidal capnography (detCO2) in neonates compared with transcutaneous (tcCO2) carbon dioxide measurements. DESIGN Observational, prospective clinical study. SETTING Neonatal intensive care unit at Medical University of Vienna. PARTICIPANTS Conventionally ventilated neonates with a body weight between 1000 g and 3000 g. INTERVENTION End-tidal partial pressure of CO2 was measured in distal position using the separate lumen of a double-lumen endotracheal tube connected to an external side-stream capnometer. Three consecutive detCO2 and tcCO2 values were recorded simultaneously and compared with simultaneous arterialised partial pressure of CO2 (paCO2) measurements in each patient. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Reliability, accuracy and precision of detCO2 and tcCO2 measurements compared with paCO2 in neonates. RESULTS Twenty-five neonates were included with a median (range) weight at enrolment of 1410 (1010-2980) g, from which 81 simultaneous measurements of detCO2, tcCO2 and paCO2 were obtained. The mean (SD) of paCO2, detCO2 and tcCO2 was 45.0 (8.6) mmHg, 42.4 (8.4) mmHg and 50.4 (20.4) mmHg, respectively. The intraclass correlation between paCO2 and detCO2 and between paCO2 and tcCO2 reached 0.80 (95% CI 0.71 to 0.87, p<0.001) and 0.59 (95% CI 0.43 to 0.72, p<0.001), respectively. In the Bland-Altman analysis, bias and precision of detCO2 with respect to paCO2 amounted to -2.68 mmHg and 10.62 mmHg (95% CI 8.49 to 14.51), respectively. Bias and precision of tcCO2 with respect to paCO2 amounted to 5.39 mmHg and 17.22 mmHg (95% CI 13.21 to 23.34), respectively. CONCLUSION DetCO2 had better reliability, accuracy and precision with paCO2 than tcCO2 in ventilated neonates without severe lung diseas. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03758313.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) monitoring in human subjects is of crucial importance in medical practice. Transcutaneous monitors based on the Stow-Severinghaus electrode make a good alternative to the painful and risky arterial "blood gases" sampling. Yet, such monitors are not only expensive, but also bulky and continuously drifting, requiring frequent recalibrations by trained medical staff. Aiming at finding alternatives, the full panel of CO2 measurement techniques is thoroughly reviewed. The physicochemical working principle of each sensing technique is given, as well as some typical merit criteria, advantages, and drawbacks. An overview of the main CO2 monitoring methods and sites routinely used in clinical practice is also provided, revealing their constraints and specificities. The reviewed CO2 sensing techniques are then evaluated in view of the latter clinical constraints and transcutaneous sensing coupled to a dye-based fluorescence CO2 sensing seems to offer the best potential for the development of a future non-invasive clinical CO2 monitor.

Abstract
A 46-year-old man experienced facial burns due to a fire in his house. In the prehospital setting, suspecting inhalation injury and carbon monoxide poisoning, an emergency physician decided to bring him to the hospital for carbon dioxide (CO2) monitoring without endotracheal intubation for approximately 20 min because of less severe respiratory distress. On the way to the hospital, the patient's end-tidal CO2 monitoring ranged from 19 to 30 mm Hg, and transcutaneous carbon dioxide (TcPCO2) remained between 50 and 55 mm Hg. On arrival at the hospital, PaCO2 showed 51.6 mm Hg. Endotracheal intubation using a bronchoscope was performed in the emergency room, and inhalation injury was observed. He was extubated on day 5 and discharged on day 10. In the prehospital setting, TcPCO2 monitoring is useful for initial management of non-intubated inhalation injury patients even with high concentration oxygen.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Arterial blood gases are important when assessing acute or critically ill patients. Capillary blood and mathematical arterialization of venous blood have been proposed as alternative methods, eliminating pain and complications of arterial puncture. OBJECTIVES This study compares the arterial samples, arterialized venous samples, and capillary samples in ICU and pulmonary ward patients. METHOD Ninety-one adult patients with respiratory failure were included in the analysis. Arterial, peripheral venous, and mathematically arterialized venous samples were compared in all patients using Bland-Altman analysis, with capillary samples included in 36 patients. RESULTS Overall for pH and PCO2, arterialized venous values, and in the subset of 36 patients, capillary values, compared well to arterial values and were within the pre-defined clinically acceptable differences (pH ± 0.05 and PCO2 ± 0.88 kPa). For PO2, arterialized or capillary values describe arterial with similar precision (PO2 arterialized -0.03, LoA -1.48 to 1.42 kPa and PO2 capillary 0.82, LoA -1.36 to 3 kPa), with capillary values underestimating arterial. CONCLUSIONS Mathematical arterialization functions well in a range of patients in an ICU and ward outside the country of development of the method. Furthermore, accuracy and precision are similar to capillary blood samples. When considering a replacement for arterial sampling in ward patients, using capillary sampling or mathematical arterialization should depend on logistic ease of implementation and use rather than improved measurements of using either technique.

Abstract
This paper provides a comprehensive review of available technologies for measurements of vital physiology related parameters that cause sleep disordered breathing (SDB). SDB is a chronic disease that may lead to several health problems and increase the risk of high blood pressure and even heart attack. Therefore, the diagnosis of SDB at an early stage is very important. The essential primary step before diagnosis is measurement. Vital health parameters related to SBD might be measured through invasive or non-invasive methods. Nowadays, with respect to increase in aging population, improvement in home health management systems is needed more than even a decade ago. Moreover, traditional health parameter measurement techniques such as polysomnography are not comfortable and introduce additional costs to the consumers. Therefore, in modern advanced self-health management devices, electronics and communication science are combined to provide appliances that can be used for SDB diagnosis, by monitoring a patient's physiological parameters with more comfort and accuracy. Additionally, development in machine learning algorithms provides accurate methods of analysing measured signals. This paper provides a comprehensive review of measurement approaches, data transmission, and communication networks, alongside machine learning algorithms for sleep stage classification, to diagnose SDB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Controlling arterial carbon dioxide is paramount in mechanically ventilated patients, and an accurate and continuous noninvasive monitoring method would optimize management in dynamic situations. In this study, we validated and further refined formulas for estimating partial pressure of carbon dioxide with respiratory gas and pulse oximetry data in mechanically ventilated cardiac arrest patients. METHODS A total of 4741 data sets were collected retrospectively from 233 resuscitated patients undergoing therapeutic hypothermia. The original formula used to analyze the data is PaCO2 -est1 = PETCO2 + k[(PIO2 - PETCO2 ) - PaO2 ]. To achieve better accuracy, we further modified the formula to PaCO2 -est2 = k1 *PETCO2 + k2 *(PIO2 - PETCO2 ) + k3 *(100-SpO2 ). The coefficients were determined by identifying the minimal difference between the measured and calculated arterial carbon dioxide values in a development set. The accuracy of these two methods was compared with the estimation of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide using end-tidal carbon dioxide. RESULTS With PaCO2 -est1, the mean difference between the partial pressure of carbon dioxide, and the estimated carbon dioxide was 0.08 kPa (SE ±0.003); with PaCO2 -est2 the difference was 0.036 kPa (SE ±0.009). The mean difference between the partial pressure of carbon dioxide and end-tidal carbon dioxide was 0.72 kPa (SE ±0.01). In a mixed linear model, there was a significant difference between the estimation using end-tidal carbon dioxide and PaCO2 -est1 (P < .001) and PaCO2 -est2 (P < .001) respectively. CONCLUSIONS This novel formula appears to provide an accurate, continuous, and noninvasive estimation of arterial carbon dioxide.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE The arterial carbon dioxide (CO2) partial pressure PaCO2 is a clinically relevant variable. However, its measurement requires arterial blood sampling or bulky and expensive transcutaneous PtcCO2 meters. While the spectrophotometric determination of hemoglobin species-such as oxy-hemoglobin (O2Hb) and deoxy-hemoglobin (HHb)-allowed for the development of pulse oximetry, the measurement of CO2 blood content with minimal discomfort has not been addressed yet. AIM Characterizing human carbamino-hemoglobin (CO2Hb) absorption spectrum, which is missing from the literature. Providing the theoretical background that will allow for transcutaneous, noninvasive PaCO2 measurements. APPROACH A tonometry-based approach was used to obtain gas-equilibrated, lysed, diluted human blood. Equilibration was performed with both CO2, dinitrogen (N2), and ambient air. Spectrophotometric measurements were carried out on the 235- to 1000-nm range. A theoretical background was also derived from that of pulse oximetry. RESULTS The absorption spectra of both CO2Hb and HHb were extremely close and comparable with that of state-of-the-art HHb. The above-mentioned theoretical background led to an estimated relative error above 30% on the measured amount of CO2Hb in a subject's blood. Auxiliary measurements revealed that the use of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid did not interfere with spectrophotometric measurements, whereas sodium metabisulfite did. CONCLUSIONS CO2Hb absorption spectrum was measured for the first time. Such spectrum being close to that of HHb, the use of a theoretical background based on pulse oximetry theory for noninvasive PaCO2 measurement seems extremely challenging.

Comparison of arterial CO 2 estimation by end-tidal and transcutaneous CO 2 measurements in intubated children and variability with subject related factors. J Clin Monit Comput 2020; 35:101-111. [PMID: 32720231 PMCID: PMC7384390 DOI: 10.1007/s10877-020-00569-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2019] [Accepted: 07/22/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Transcutaneous PCO2 (PTCCO2) and end-tidal PCO2 (PETCO2) measurement methods serve as alternatives to arterial PCO2 (PaCO2), providing continuous non-invasive monitoring. The objective of this study was to evaluate the PTCCO2 and PETCO2 methods with actual PaCO2 levels, and to assess the variability of measurements in relation to subject-related factors, such as skin and subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness and presence of pulmonary diseases. PTCCO2, PETCO2 and PaCO2 were measured at the same time in intubated pediatric subjects. Subjects' demographic characteristics, clinical features, laboratory parameters, skin and subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness were identified. The study was carried out on 102 subjects with a total of 1118 values for each method. In patients with non-pulmonary disease, the mean difference between PTCCO2 and PaCO2 was - 0.29 mmHg (± 6.05), while it was 0.44 mmHg (± 6.83) bias between PETCO2 and PaCO2. In those with pulmonary diseases, the mean difference between PTCCO2 and PaCO2 was - 1.27 mmHg (± 8.32), while it was - 4.65 mmHg (± 9.01) between PETCO2 and PaCO2. Multiple linear regression demonstrated that increased subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness, core body temperature and inotropic index were related with higher PTCCO2 values relative to the actual PCO2 values. Other factors, such as skin tissue thickness, presence of pulmonary disease, measurement location and measurement times were non-significant. The PTCCO2 method has higher reliability than the PETCO2 method, and PTCCO2 measurements are not influenced by most subject-related factors; however, core body temperature, inotropic index and subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness can lead to significant differences in PCO2 measurement.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluates agreement between carbon dioxide measured arterial (PaCO2) and transcutaneous (PtcCO2) over time, by repeated successive measures, taking into consideration the inherent variability of arterial measurements. METHODS AND RESULTS 11 patients receiving LTOT, with severe to very severe COPD in a stable phase were studied. Repeated arterial blood samples were drawn and PtcCO2 measured simultaneously at the ear lobe. Bland-Altman analysis was used to evaluate 95 % limits of agreement (LoA). 194 paired samples were analysed. Following correction for bias, the difference between PaCO2 and PtCO2 during dynamic conditions was 0.02 kPa and LoA 0.94 to -0.90 kPa while 29 % of PtCO2 measurements were outside the range of variability for arterial measurements. CONCLUSION PtcCO2 corrected for intra-patient bias provide reasonable description of PaCO2 values within but not outside steady state conditions. Our results suggest that PtcCO2 is a valuable method for monitoring in chronic rather than acute conditions when bias can be removed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Usual clinical practice for arterial blood gas analysis (BGA) in conscious patients involves a one-time arterial puncture to be performed after a resting period of 20-30 min. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of transcutaneous BGA for estimating this gold standard arterial BGA. METHODS Spontaneously breathing Asian adults (healthy volunteers and respiratory patients) were enrolled (n = 295). Transcutaneous PO2 (PtcO2) and PCO2 (PtcCO2) were monitored using a transcutaneous monitor (TCM4, Radiometer Medical AsP, Denmark) with sensors placed on the chest, forearm, earlobe or forehead. Transcutaneous BGA at 1-min intervals was compared with arterial BGA at 30 min. Reasonable steps to find severe hypercapnia with PaCO2 > 50 mmHg were evaluated. RESULTS Sensors on the chest and forearm were equally preferred and used because of small biases (n = 272). The average PCO2 bias was close to 0 mmHg at 4 min, and was almost constant (4-5 mmHg) with PtcCO2 being higher than PaCO2 at ≥8 min. The limit of agreement for PCO2 narrowed over time: ± 13.6 mmHg at 4 min, ± 7.5 mmHg at 12-13 min, and ± 6.3 mmHg at 30 min. The limit of agreement for PO2 also narrowed over time (± 23.1 mmHg at 30 min). Subgroup analyses showed that the PaCO2 and PaO2 levels, gender, and younger age significantly affected the biases. All hypercapnia subjects with PaCO2 > 50 mmHg (n = 13) showed PtcCO2 ≥ 50 mmHg for until 12 min. CONCLUSIONS Although PtcCO2 is useful, it cannot completely replace PaCO2 because PCO2 occasionally showed large bias. On the other hand, the prediction of PaO2 using PtcO2 was unrealistic in Asian adults. PtcCO2 ≥ 50 mmHg for until 12 min can be used as a screening tool for severe hypercapnia with PaCO2 > 50 mmHg.

Abstract
Transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) assayed cerebral blood flow (CBF) may vary between different intracranial pathologies. Blood gas analysis of the jugular bulb provides a novel way to estimate the global relationship between CBF and oxygen metabolism. In this study, 25 patients with brain trauma, spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, and acute cerebral infarction were recruited. Jugular venous oxygen saturation (SjvO2) increased significantly at different time points after hyperventilation (p < 0.05). A negative correlation between the partial pressure of CO2 between jugular venous bulb and radial artery blood (P(jv-a)CO2) and CBF could be observed in acute brain injury and spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage groups, while P(jv-a)CO2 and CBF show positive correlation in acute cerebral infarction group. Our results suggest that serial P(jv-a)CO2 analysis combing with SjvO2 can be utilized to monitor the change of CBF for patients undergoing craniocerebral surgery.

Abstract
The physiology of venous and tissue CO2 monitoring has a long and well-established physiological background, leading to the technological development of different tissue capnometric devices, such as transcutaneous capnometry monitoring (TCM). To outline briefly, measuring transcutaneous PCO2 (tcPCO2) depends on at least three main phenomena: (I) the production of CO2 by tissues (VCO2), (II) the removal of CO2 from the tissues by perfusion (wash-out phenomenon), and (III) the reference value of CO2 at tissue inlet represented by arterial CO2 content (approximated by arterial PCO2, or artPCO2). For this reason, there are, at present, roughly two clinical uses for tcPCO2 measurement: a respiratory approach where tcPCO2 is likely to estimate and non-invasively track artPCO2; and a hemodynamic under-estimate use where tcPCO2 can reflect tissue perfusion, summarized by a so-called "tc-art PCO2 gap". Recent research shows that these two uses are not incompatible and could be combined. The spectrum of indications and validation studies in ICUs is summarized in this review to give a survey of the potential applications of TCM in critically ill patients, focusing mainly on its potential (micro)circulatory monitoring contribution. We strongly believe that the greatest benefit of measuring tcPCO2 is not to only to estimate artPCO2, but also to quantify the gap between these two values, which can then help clinicians continuously and noninvasively assess both respiratory and hemodynamic failures in critically ill patients.

Abstract
Tissue hypoperfusion is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients but cannot always be detected by measuring standard whole-body hemodynamic and oxygen-related parameters (e.g., blood pressure, cardiac output, and central venous oxygen saturation). Preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated that low-flow states are consistently associated with large increases in venous and tissue PCO2. Monitoring regional PCO2 with gastric tonometry (PgCO2) is known to have independent prognostic value for predicting postoperative complications and mortality. The PgCO2 gap might also be of value as a treatment target (endpoint) in critically ill patients. However, this tool has several limitations and has not yet been developed commercially, thus restricting its use. Regional capnography with sublingual and transcutaneous sensors might be an alternative noninvasive option for evaluating the adequacy of tissue perfusion in critically ill patients. However, further studies are needed to determine whether or not this monitoring technique is of value-particularly as an endpoint for guiding resuscitation. Bladder PCO2, has only been evaluated in animal studies, and so remains to be validated in patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Airway hyper-reactivity, inflammation and remodeling contribute to inhomogeneity of ventilation-perfusion ratio VA·/Q· in asthma. Short-term variations in V.A/Q· can cause changes in expired capnographic indices. OBJECTIVES To measure acute changes in the phase 3 slope of the volumetric capnogram after β2-agonist inhalation (ΔSIII), for comparison with airway response based on FEV1 (ΔFEV1), and asthma control. SUBJECTS AND METHODS After ethical approval and informed consent, 72 children aged 6-18 y, followed up for asthma underwent spirometry and capnography before and after β-agonist inhalation through a spacer, using a side-stream rapid infrared analyzer. Asthma control was assessed using the GINA questionnaire. RESULTS Children with positive reversibility tests (defined as ΔFEV1>12%) had a significantly higher ΔSIII (m ± SE: 87.4 ± 41.4) versus those with negative tests (31.3 ± 14.0%, P = 0.001). Uncontrolled asthma was associated with a significantly larger ΔSIII (103.4 ± 64.0%, n = 7) compared to partly controlled (52.0 ± 26.1, n = 24; P = 0.009) and controlled asthma (30.8 ± 16.3, n = 41; P = 0.003). Neither Bohr dead space nor ΔFEV1 were different between asthma control groups. CONCLUSIONS ΔSIII was significantly larger in children with positive response to β2-agonist, and in uncontrolled asthmatics. To our knowledge these are the first data on exhaled CO2 phase III volumetric slope change and asthma control. The observed ΔSIII could be due to an increased ventilation of inhomogeneous peripheral lung units, and merits further evaluation as a potential phenotypic biomarker in asthma.

Abstract
Arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis is the traditional method for measuring the partial pressure of carbon dioxide. In mechanically ventilated patients a continuous noninvasive monitoring of carbon dioxide would obviously be attractive. In the current study, we present a novel formula for noninvasive estimation of arterial carbon dioxide. Eighty-one datasets were collected from 19 anesthetized and mechanically ventilated pigs. Eleven animals were mechanically ventilated without interventions. In the remaining eight pigs the partial pressure of carbon dioxide was manipulated. The new formula (Formula 1) is PaCO2 = PETCO2 + k(PETO2 − PaO2) where PaO2 was calculated from the oxygen saturation. We tested the agreements of this novel formula and compared it to a traditional method using the baseline PaCO2 − ETCO2 gap added to subsequently measured, end-tidal carbon dioxide levels (Formula 2). The mean difference between PaCO2 and calculated carbon dioxide (Formula 1) was 0.16 kPa (±SE 1.17). The mean difference between PaCO2 and carbon dioxide with Formula 2 was 0.66 kPa (±SE 0.18). With a mixed linear model excluding cases with cardiorespiratory collapse, there was a significant difference between formulae (p < 0.001), as well as significant interaction between formulae and time (p < 0.001). In this preliminary animal study, this novel formula appears to have a reasonable agreement with PaCO2 values measured with ABG analysis, but needs further validation in human patients.

Abstract
The arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) is an important parameter in critically ill, mechanically ventilated patients. To limit invasive procedures or for more continuous monitoring of PaCO2, clinicians often rely on venous blood gases, capnography, or transcutaneous monitoring. Each of these has advantages and limitations. Central venous Pco2 allows accurate estimation of PaCO2, differing from it by an amount described by the Fick principle. As long as cardiac output is relatively normal, central venous Pco2 exceeds the arterial value by approximately 4 mm Hg. In contrast, peripheral venous Pco2 is a poor predictor of PaCO2, and we do not recommend using peripheral venous Pco2 in this manner. Capnography offers measurement of the end-tidal Pco2 (PetCO2), a value that is close to PaCO2 when the lung is healthy. It has the advantage of being noninvasive and continuously available. In mechanically ventilated patients with lung disease, however, PetCO2 often differs from PaCO2, sometimes by a large degree, often seriously underestimating the arterial value. Dependence of PetCO2 on alveolar dead space and ventilator expiratory time limits its value to predict PaCO2. When lung function or ventilator settings change, PetCO2 and PaCO2 can vary in different directions, producing further uncertainty. Transcutaneous Pco2 measurement has become practical and reliable. It is promising for judging steady state values for PaCO2 unless there is overt vasoconstriction of the skin. Moreover, it can be useful in conditions where capnography fails (high-frequency ventilation) or where arterial blood gas analysis is burdensome (clinic or home management of mechanical ventilation).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Continuous partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2 ) assessment is essential for the success of mechanical ventilation (MV). Non-invasive end-tidal PCO2 (PetCO2 ) and transcutaneous PCO2 (PtcCO2 ) measurements serve as alternatives to the gold standard arterial PCO2 (PaCO2 ) method, but their eligibility in critical care is unclear. METHODS The present study therefore performed methodological comparisons of PaCO2 versus PetCO2 and PtcCO2 , respectively, in weaning patients receiving invasive MV via tracheal cannulas. PetCO2 and PtcCO2 were recorded continuously, while PaCO2 was analysed at baseline, and after 30 and 60 min. Using the Bland-Altman analysis, a clinically acceptable range was defined as a mean difference of ±4 mm Hg between PaCO2 and non-invasive strategies. RESULTS A total of 60 patients (COPD (n = 30) and non-COPD (n = 30)) completed the protocol. Mean PCO2 values were 42.4 ± 8.6 mm Hg (PaCO2 ), 36.5 ± 7.5 mm Hg (PetCO2 ) and 41.7 ± 8.7 mm Hg (PtcCO2 ). Mean differences between PtcCO2 and PaCO2 were -0.7 ± 3.6 mm Hg (95% CI: -1.6/0.3 mm Hg; 95% limits of agreement: -7.8 to 6.4 mm Hg), and between PetCO2 and PaCO2 -5.9 ± 5.3 mm Hg (95% CI: -7.2/-4.5 mm Hg; 95% limits of agreement: -16.2 to 4.5 mm Hg). Underestimation of PaCO2 by PetCO2 was most pronounced in COPD patients. CONCLUSION Our data therefore support PtcCO2 as a suitable means for monitoring PCO2 in patients undergoing invasive MV. This is in contrast to PetCO2 , which clearly underestimated PaCO2 , especially in patients with COPD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is known that the arterial carbon dioxide pressure (PaCO2) is useful for emergency physicians to assess the severity of dyspnoeic spontaneously breathing patients. Transcutaneous carbon dioxide pressure (PtcCO2) measurements could be a non-invasive alternative to PaCO2 measurements obtained by blood gas samples, as suggested in previous studies. This study evaluates the reliability of a new device in the emergency department (ED). METHODS We prospectively included patients presenting to the ED with respiratory distress who were breathing spontaneously or under non-invasive ventilation. We simultaneously performed arterial blood gas measurements and measurement of PtcCO2 using a sensor placed either on the forearm or the side of the chest and connected to the TCM4 CombiM device. The agreement between PaCO2 and PtcCO2 was assessed using the Bland-Altman method. RESULTS Sixty-seven spontaneously breathing patients were prospectively included (mean age 70 years, 52% men) and 64 first measurements of PtcCO2 (out of 67) were analysed out of the 97 performed. Nineteen patients (28%) had pneumonia, 19 (28%) had acute heart failure and 19 (28%) had an exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Mean PaCO2 was 49 mm Hg (range 22-103). The mean difference between PaCO2 and PtcCO2 was 9 mm Hg (range -47 to +54) with 95% limits of agreement of -21.8 mm Hg and 39.7 mm Hg. Only 36.3% of the measurement differences were within 5 mm Hg. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that PtcCO2 measured by the TCM4 device could not replace PaCO2 obtained by arterial blood gas analysis.

Abstract
Abstract After publication of this article (Scand J Trauma Resusc Emerg Med 23:40, 2015), it came to light that an earlier version had been published in error. This erratum contains the correct version of the article, which incorporates revisions made in response to reviewer comments. Additionally, one of the authors was inadvertently omitted from the author list. This author, Justin Yan, has been included in the corrected author list above. Background Transcutaneous CO2 (PtCO2) is a continuous and non-invasive measure recommended by scientific societies in the management of respiratory distress. The objective of this study was to evaluate the correlation between PtCO2 and arterial partial pressure of CO2 (PaCO2) by arterial blood gas analysis in emergency patients with dyspnoea, and to determine the factors that interfere with this correlation. Methods From January to June 2014, all adult patients admitted to the RR with dyspnoea during business hours were included in the study if arterial blood gas measurements were indicated. A sensor measuring the PtCO2 was attached to the ear lobe of the patient before the gas analysis. Anamnesis, clinical and laboratory parameters were identified. Results Ninety patients with dyspnoea were included (104 pairs of measurements). The median (IQR) age was 79 years (69 – 85). The correlation between PtCO2 and PaCO2 was R2 =.83 (p<.001) but became lower for values of PaCO2 above 60 mm Hg. The mean bias (± SD) between the two methods of measurement (Bland-Altman analysis) was −1.4 mm Hg (± 7.7) with limits of agreement from −16.4 to 13.7 mm Hg. In univariate analysis, PaO2 interfered with this correlation. After multivariate analysis, temperature (OR = 3.01; 95 % CIs [1.16, 7.80]) and PaO2 (OR = 1.22; 95 % CIs [1.02, 1.47]) significantly interfered with this correlation. Conclusions There is a significant correlation between PaCO2 and PtCO2 values for patients admitted to the emergency department for acute respiratory failure. One limiting factor to routine use of PtCO2 measurements in the emergency department is the presence of hyperthermia.

Abstract
Measurement of end-tidal carbon dioxide (PETCO2) is useful because of its noninvasiveness, continuity, and response time when sudden changes in ventilation occur during inhalation sedation. We compared the accuracy of PETCO2 using a nasal mask and nasal cannula with the accuracy of transcutaneous carbon dioxide (TC-CO2) and determined which method is more useful during inhalation sedation in volunteers. We used a modified nasal mask (MNM) and modified nasal cannula (MNC) for measurement of PETCO2. The capnometer measured PETCO2 in the gas expired from the nasal cavity by means of two devices. The volunteers received supplemental O2 by means of each device at a flow rate of 6 L/min. After the volunteers lay quietly for 5 min with a supply of 100 % O2, they received supplemental N2O by means of each device at concentrations of 10, 20, and 25 % for 5 min and 30 % for 25 min. The correlation coefficient was poorer in the MNM than in the MNC, and the mean difference between TC-CO2 and PETCO2 in the MNM was greater than that in the MNC. The difference between the TC-CO2 and PETCO2 ranged from 3 to 6 mmHg in the MNM and from 2 to 5 mmHg in the MNC. The difference between two variables against the TC-CO2 and the CO2 waveforms obtained by means of the two devices were within the clinically acceptable range. Our two devices can provide continuous monitoring of PETCO2 with a supply of N2O/O2 in patients undergoing inhalation sedation.

Abstract
Hemorrhagic shock (HS) is a setting in which both pulmonary and cutaneous perfusion may be impaired. The goals of this study were to evaluate the relationship between end-tidal (etCO2), transcutaneous (tPCO2), arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and lactate during lethal HS and to assess the effect of progressive HS on those variables and on a new variable, the noninvasive CO2 gradient ([NICO2G] or the difference between tPCO2 and etCO2). Ten consciously sedated swine were hemorrhaged, by means of a computerized exponential protocol, of up to 80% estimated blood volume for 20 min. End-tidal carbon dioxide, tPCO2, PaCO2, and lactate measurements were taken at baseline and every 5 min thereafter, that is, after 25%, 44%, and 62% total blood volume hemorrhage (TBVH) and at cardiac arrest. Cardiac arrest occurred on average at 67% TBVH. Data were analyzed by linear regression and one-way repeated-measures analysis of variance and are presented as means ± SD. Forty-nine paired measurements were made. There was no overall relationship between NICO2 variables and PaCO2: PaCO2 vs. tPCO2 (r2 = 0.002, P = 0.78); PaCO2 vs. etCO2 (r2 = 0.0002, P = 0.93). Rather, NICO2G increased at each level of blood loss: 4.0 ± 24.9 at baseline, 6.3 ± 35.7 at 25% TBVH, 25.0 ± 37.6 at 44% TBVH, 55.0 ± 33.9 at 62% TBVH, and 70.0 ± 33.2 at cardiac arrest (P < 0.05). Similarly, tPCO2 increased and etCO2 decreased at each level. Linear regression of NICO2G and lactate showed a better correlation than was observed for the other two variables: NICO2G, r2 = 0.58; tPCO2, r2 = 0.46; etCO2, r2 = 0.26. During HS, NICO2 monitors lose accuracy for approximating the PaCO2 but gain usefulness as hemodynamic monitors. Also, by combining data from two different organ systems, NICO2G demonstrated improved correlation with lactate than did either etCO2 or tPCO2 alone.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Transcutaneous capnography is a noninvasive method useful for analysis of the behavioral tendency of transcutaneous CO₂pressure (PtcCO₂) in patients undergoing polysomnography, to evaluate respiratory sleep disorders. OBJECTIVE Determine normative PtcCO₂values in normal patients undergoing polysomnography. METHOD One hundred seventy-nine patients who underwent polysomnography with simultaneous PtcCO₂measurement were assessed by means of a transcutaneous capnograph (TCM4 series from Radiomiter). RESULTS The group classified as normal (N=53) presented a apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) <5 events/per hour of sleep and their age groups varied between 7 and 76 years of age. CONCLUSION Global mean values of PtcCO₂in the normal group had a Gaussian distribution that varied between 33.1 and 50.0 mmHg (SD 4,363). Such findings allowed the establishment of normative PtcCO₂values for normal individuals.

Abstract
The primary end point when treating acute shock is to restore blood circulation, mainly by reaching macrocirculatory parameters. However, even if global haemodynamic goals can be achieved, microcirculatory perfusion may remain impaired, leading to cellular hypoxia and organ damage. Interestingly, few methods are currently available to measure the adequacy of organ blood flow and tissue oxygenation. The rise in tissue partial pressure of carbon dioxide (CO2) has been observed when tissue perfusion is decreased. In this regard, tissue partial pressure of CO2 has been proposed as an early and reliable marker of tissue hypoxia even if the mechanisms of tissue partial pressure in CO2 rise during hypoperfusion remain unclear. Several technologies allow the estimation of CO2 content from different body sites: vascular, tissular (in hollow organs, mucosal or cutaneous), and airway. These tools remain poorly evaluated, and some are used but are not widely used in clinical practice. The present review clarifies the physiology of increasing tissue CO2 during hypoperfusion and underlines the specificities of the different technologies that allow bedside estimation of tissue CO2 content.

Abstract
Various factors including severe obesity or increases in intra-abdominal pressure during laparoscopy can lead to inaccuracies in end-tidal carbon dioxide (PETCO2) monitoring. The current study prospectively compares ET and transcutaneous (TC) CO2 monitoring in severely obese adolescents and young adults during laparoscopic-assisted bariatric surgery. Carbon dioxide was measured with both ET and TC devices during insufflation and laparoscopic bariatric surgery. The differences between each measure (PETCO2 and TC-CO2) and the PaCO2 were compared using a non-paired t test, Fisher's exact test, and a Bland-Altman analysis. The study cohort included 25 adolescents with a mean body mass index of 50.2 kg/m2 undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery. There was no difference in the absolute difference between the TC-CO2 and PaCO2 (3.2±3.0 mmHg) and the absolute difference between the PETCO2 and PaCO2 (3.7±2.5 mmHg). The bias and precision were 0.3 and 4.3 mmHg for TC monitoring versus PaCO2 and 3.2 and 3.2 mmHg for ET monitoring versus PaCO2. In the young severely obese population both TC and PETCO2 monitoring can be used to effectively estimate PaCO2. The correlation of PaCO2 to TC-CO2 is good, and similar to the correlation of PaCO2 to PETCO2. In this population, both of these non-invasive measures of PaCO2 can be used to monitor ventilation and minimize arterial blood gas sampling.

Abstract
In critically ill intubated patients, assessment of adequacy of ventilation relies on measuring partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2), which requires invasive arterial blood gas analysis. Alternative noninvasive technologies include transcutaneous CO2 (tPCO2) and end-tidal CO2 (EtCO2) monitoring. We evaluated accuracy of tPCO2 and EtCO2 monitoring in a porcine model of acute lung injury (ALI) due to smoke inhalation and burns. Eight anesthetized Yorkshire pigs underwent mechanical ventilation, wood-bark smoke inhalation injury, and 40% total body surface area thermal injury. tPCO2 was measured with a SenTec system (SenTec AG, Therwil, Switzerland) and EtCO2 with a Capnostream-20 (Oridion Medical, Jerusalem, Israel). These values were compared with PaCO2 measurements from an arterial blood gas analyzer. Paired measurements of EtCO2-PaCO2 (n = 276) and tPCO2-PaCO2 (n = 250) were recorded in the PaCO2 range of 25 to 85 mmHg. Overlapping data sets were analyzed based on respiratory and hemodynamic status of animals. Acute lung injury was defined as PaO2/FIO2 ≤ 300 mmHg; hemodynamic instability was defined as mean arterial pressure ≤ 60 mmHg. Before ALI, EtCO2 demonstrated moderate correlation with PaCO2 (R = 0.45; P < 0.0001), which deteriorated after onset of ALI (R = 0.12; P < 0.0001). Before ALI, tPCO2 demonstrated moderate correlation (R = 0.51, P < 0.0001), which was sustained after onset of ALI (R = 0.78; P < 0.0001). During hemodynamic stability, EtCO2 demonstrated moderate correlation with PaCO2 (R = 0.44; P < 0.0001). During hemodynamic instability, EtCO2 did not correlate with PaCO2 (R = 0.03; P = 0.29). tPCO2 monitoring demonstrated strong correlation with PaCO2 during hemodynamic stability (R = 0.80, P < 0.0001), which deteriorated under hemodynamically unstable conditions (R = 0.39; P < 0.0001). Noninvasive carbon dioxide monitors are acceptable for monitoring trends in PaCO2 under conditions of hemodynamic and pulmonary stability. Under unstable conditions, reevaluation of patient status and increased caution in the interpretation of results are required.

Abstract
Ten subjects underwent treadmill exercise at 5.6 km/h over one hour while wearing each of three identical appearing, cup-shaped, prototype filtering facepiece respirators that differed only in their filter resistances (3 mm, 6 mm, and 9 mm H2O pressure drop). There were no statistically significant differences between filtering facepiece respirators with respect to impact on physiological parameters (i.e., heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, transcutaneous carbon dioxide levels, tympanic membrane temperature), pulmonary function variables (i.e., tidal volume, respiratory rate, volume of carbon dioxide production, oxygen consumption, or ventilation), and subjective ratings (i.e., exertion, thermal comfort, inspiratory effort, expiratory effort and overall breathing comfort). The nominal filter resistances of the prototype filtering facepiece respirators correspond to airflow resistances ranging from 2.1 - 6.6 mm H2O/L/s which are less than, or minimally equivalent to, previously reported values for the normal threshold for detection of inspiratory breathing resistance (6 - 7.6 mm H2O/L/sec). Therefore, filtering facepiece respirators with filter resistances at, or below, this level may not impact the wearer differently physiologically or subjectively from those with filter resistances only slightly above this threshold at low-moderate work rates over one hour.

Abstract
Complex respiratory events, which may have a detrimental effect on both quality of sleep and control of nocturnal hypoventilation, occur during sleep in patients treated by non-invasive ventilation (NIV). Among these events are patient-ventilator asynchrony, increases in upper airway resistance with or without increased respiratory drive, and leaks. Detection of these events is important in order to select the most appropriate ventilator settings and interface. Simple tools can provide important information when monitoring NIV. Pulse-oximetry is important to ensure that an adequate SpO2 is provided, and to detect either prolonged or short and recurrent desaturations. However, the specificity of pulse-oximetry tracings under NIV is low. Transcutaneous capnography discriminates between hypoxemia related to V/Q mismatch and hypoventilation, documents correction of nocturnal hypoventilation, and may detect ventilator-induced hyperventilation, a possible cause for central apnea/hypopnea and glottic closure. Data provided by ventilator software helps the clinician by estimating ventilation, tidal volume, leaks, rate of inspiratory or expiratory triggering by the patient, although further validation of these signals by independent studies is indicated. Finally, autonomic markers of sympathetic tone using signals such as pulse wave amplitude of the pulse-oximetry signal can provide reliable information of sleep fragmentation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Transcutaneous, arterial and end-tidal measurements of carbon dioxide were compared in patients (American Society of Anesthesiology physical status classes II and III) with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy with carbon dioxide insufflation. METHODS General anaesthesia was performed in all patients. The Sentec(®) system was used for transcutaneous monitoring of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (TcPCO(2)). TcPCO(2) and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO(2)) were recorded preoperatively, after induction of anaesthesia, during insufflation and postoperatively; end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO(2)) was recorded after induction and during insufflation. RESULTS PaCO(2) increased during insufflation and reached a maximum at extubation. It declined within 20 min postoperatively but did not return to preoperative levels during this time. TcPCO(2) levels followed a similar pattern. ETCO(2) was significantly lower than PaCO(2) after induction and during insufflation. CONCLUSION TcPCO(2) was a valid and practical measurement compared with ETCO(2). In patients with COPD undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, TcPCO(2) and ETCO(2) could be used instead of arterial blood gas sampling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Filtering facepiece respirators are the most common respirator worn by US health care and industrial workers, yet little is known on the physiologic impact of wearing this protective equipment. METHODS Twenty young, healthy subjects exercised on a treadmill at a low-moderate (5.6 km/h) work rate while wearing 4 different models of N95 filtering facepiece respirators for 1 hour each, 2 models of which were equipped with exhalation valves, while being monitored for physiologic variables. RESULTS Compared with controls, respirator use was associated with mean 1 hour increases in heart rate (range, 5.7-10.6 beats per minute, P < .001), respiratory rate (range, 1.4-2.4 breaths per minute, P < .05), and transcutaneous carbon dioxide (range, 1.7-3.0 mm Hg, P < .001). No significant differences in oxygen saturation between controls and respirators were noted (P > .05). CONCLUSION The pulmonary and heart rate responses to wearing a filtering facepiece respirator for 1 hour at a low-moderate work rate are relatively small and should generally be well tolerated by healthy persons.

Abstract
In critical care, the monitoring is essential to the daily care of ICU patients, as the optimization of patient's hemodynamic, ventilation, temperature, nutrition, and metabolism is the key to improve patients' survival. Indeed, the decisive endpoint is the supply of oxygen to tissues according to their metabolic needs in order to fuel mitochondrial respiration and, therefore, life. In this sense, both oxygenation and perfusion must be monitored in the implementation of any resuscitation strategy. The emerging concept has been the enhancement of macrocirculation through sequential optimization of heart function and then judging the adequacy of perfusion/oxygenation on specific parameters in a strategy which was aptly coined “goal directed therapy.” On the other hand, the maintenance of normal temperature is critical and should be regularly monitored. Regarding respiratory monitoring of ventilated ICU patients, it includes serial assessment of gas exchange, of respiratory system mechanics, and of patients' readiness for liberation from invasive positive pressure ventilation. Also, the monitoring of nutritional and metabolic care should allow controlling nutrients delivery, adequation between energy needs and delivery, and blood glucose. The present paper will describe the physiological basis, interpretation of, and clinical use of the major endpoints of perfusion/oxygenation adequacy and of temperature, respiratory, nutritional, and metabolic monitorings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-invasive measurement of oxygenation is a routine procedure in clinical practice, but transcutaneous monitoring of PCO(2)(PtCO(2)) is used much less than expected. METHODS The aim of our study was to analyze the value of a commercially available combined SpO(2)/PtCO(2) monitor (TOSCA-Linde Medical System, Basel, Switzerland) in adult non-invasive ventilated patients with acute respiratory failure. Eighty critically ill adult patients, requiring arterial blood sample gas analyses, underwent SpO(2) and PtCO(2) measurements (10 min after the probe was attached to an earlobe) simultaneously with arterial blood sampling. The level of agreement between PaCO(2) - PtCO(2) and SaO(2) - SpO(2)was assessed by Bland-Altman analyses. RESULTS Both, SaO(2) from blood gas analysis and SpO(2) from the transcutaneous monitor, and PaCO(2) and PtCO(2) were equally useful. No measurements were outside of the acceptable clinical range of agreement of ± 7.5 mmHg. CONCLUSIONS The accuracy of estimation of the TOSCA transcutaneous electrode (compared with the "gold standard" blood sample gas analysis) was generally good. Moreover, TOSCA presents the advantage of the possibility of continuous non-invasive measurement. The level of agreement of the two methods of measurement allows us to state that the TOSCA sensor is useful in routine monitoring of adults admitted to an intermediate respiratory unit and undergoing non-invasive ventilation.

Abstract
Arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) and partial arterial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) are important respiratory parameters in critically ill neonates. A sensor combining a pulse oximeter with the Stow-Severinghaus electrode, required for the measurement of peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) and transcutaneous partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PtcCO2), respectively, has been recently used in neonatal clinical practice (TOSCA500ÒRadiometer). We evaluated TOSCA usability and reliability in the delivery room (DR), throughout three different periods, on term, late-preterm, and preterm neonates. During the first period (period A), 30 healthy term neonates were simultaneously monitored with both TOSCA and a MASIMO pulse oximeter. During the second period (period B), 10 healthy late-preterm neonates were monitored with both TOSCA and a transcutaneous device measuring PtcCO2 (TINAÒ TCM3, Radiometer). During the third period (period C), 15 preterm neonates were monitored with TOSCA and MASIMO after birth, during stabilization, and during transport to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Blood gas analyses were performed to compare transcutaneous and blood gas values. TOSCA resulted easily and safely usable in the DR, allowing reliable noninvasive SaO2 estimation. Since PtcCO2 measurements with TOSCA required at least 10 min to be stable and reliable, this parameter was not useful during the early resuscitation immediately after birth. Moreover, PtcCO2 levels were less precise if compared to the conventional transcutaneous monitoring. However, PtcCO2 measurement by TOSCA was useful as trend-monitoring after stabilization and during transport to NICU.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcutaneous carbon dioxide pressure (PtcCO(2)) has been suggested as a noninvasive surrogate of arterial carbon dioxide pressure (PaCO(2)). Our study evaluates the reliability of this method in spontaneously breathing patients in an emergency department. PATIENTS AND METHODS A prospective, observational study was performed in nonintubated dyspneic patients who required measurement of arterial blood gases. Simultaneously and blindly to the physicians in charge, PtcCO(2) was measured using a TOSCA 500 monitor (Radiometer, Villeurbanne, France). Agreement between PaCO(2) and PtcCO(2) was assessed using the Bland-Altman method. RESULTS Forty-eight patients (mean age, 65 years) were included, and 50 measurements were done. Eleven (23%) had acute heart failure; 10 (21%), pneumonia; 7 (15%), acute asthma; and 7 (15%), exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Median PaCO(2) was 42 mm Hg (range, 17-109). Mean difference between PaCO(2) and PtcCO(2) was 1 mm Hg with 95% limits of agreement of -3.4 to +5.6 mm Hg. All measurement differences were within 5 mm Hg, and 32 (64%) were within 2 mm Hg. CONCLUSION Transcutaneous carbon dioxide pressure accurately predicts PaCO(2) in spontaneously breathing patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the accuracy of transcutaneous (tc) to arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO(2) ) and partial pressure of oxygen (PaO(2) ) in anesthetized rabbits. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, randomized, experimental study. ANIMALS Eight healthy adult female New Zealand white rabbits weighing 4.05± 0.30 kg. METHODS Isoflurane anesthetized rabbits received six treatments in random order; PaCO(2) <35, 35-45, and >45 mmHg and PaO(2) < 80, 100-200, >200 mmHg. Arterial and transcutaneous measurements were taken after 15 minutes of stabilization at each condition. Linear regression, correlation and Bland-Altman analysis were performed to compare PtcCO(2) to PaCO(2) and PtcO(2) to PaO(2) . RESULTS Over a range of measured PaCO(2) values from 21 to 67 mmHg (n=24) mean bias for PtcCO(2) was -1 mmHg and the 95% limits of agreement were -7 to 5 mmHg. The correlation between PtcCO(2) and PaCO(2) was strong with R(2) value of 0.9454. Over the entire range of measured PaO(2) values (46-508 mmHg) mean bias for PtcO(2) was -61 mmHg and the 95% limits of agreement were -226 to 104 mmHg. Correlation was poor with R(2) =0.5969. Comparing PtcO(2) to PaO(2) over a narrower range [PaO(2) < 150 mmHg (n=13)] improved the correlation, with an R(2) value of 0.8518, mean bias of -7 mmHg and 95% limits of agreement from -33 to 19 mmHg. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE In healthy anesthetized rabbits, PtcCO(2) closely approximated PaCO(2) . In contrast PtcO(2) underestimated PaO(2) , particularly at high values. The PtcCO(2) sensor may be a useful noninvasive way to assess adequacy of ventilation in anesthetized rabbits.
