  1. CO2 Physiology

  2. What is Carbon Dioxide? • Capnos comes from the Greek word for “smoke” • smoke from the fire of metabolism • a natural waste product of cellular activity • CO2 is a compound molecule • 1 element of carbon and 2 elements of oxygen • colorless and heavier than air • green plants clean up after our exhaled CO2

  3. Physiology of CO2 • CO2 produced by cellular metabolism diffuses across the cell membrane into the circulating blood. • The blood transports the CO2 to the lungs. • Then it diffuses from the blood into the lungs. • CO2 is eliminated with alveolar ventilation on exhalation.

  4. Physiology of CO2 • Carbon Dioxide is transported in the blood in three (3) principle forms: • 5 to 10% as gas & reflected by the PCO2 • 20 to 30% is bound to blood proteins, the major one being hemoglobin • 60 to 70% is carried as bicarbonate (HCO3)

  5. Physiology of CO2 • About 5-10% of CO2 is eliminate through exhalation only. • The rest is recycled in the body through the circulatory and renal systems. • The heart and lungs would have to increase their work 10 times if they were required to eliminate all the CO2 the body produces!

  6. Ventilation & EtCO2 Monitoring • Endtidal CO2 (EtCO2) is the CO2 measured at the end of expiration. • EtCO2 concentration provides a clinical estimate of the PaCO2, if ventilation and perfusion are appropriately matched. • EtCO2 monitoring allows for a breath by breath assessment of ventilation.

  7. The continuous measurement and graphic display (waveform) of the CO2 concentration in the patient’s airway during the respiratory cycle. Capnography— Normal waveform:

  8. Respiratory Cycle O2 CO2 CO2 O2

  9. Oxygenation = oxygen → lungs→ alveoli→ blood Monitored by a Pulseoximeter Metabolism = oxygen is converted to energy + CO2 Monitored by a Metabolic Computer Hymodynamic Parameter Monitored by ECG, IPB, NIBP, Temperature Ventilation = CO2→ blood→ lungs→ exhalation Monitored by a Capnograph Respiratory Cycle

  10. Normal conditions: EtCO2 is between 35 – 45 mmHg PaCO2 & EtCO2 will be very close EtCO2 ismost2 - 5mmHg less with normal physiology Widening of this difference can be caused by: Incomplete alveolar emptying Ventilation-perfusion abnormalities Poor sampling Capnography monitoring of Critically ill patient may alert clinicians to underlying conditions The relationship – EtCO2 andPaCO2

  11. PaCO2 – Partial pressure of CO2 present in arteries (similar to concentration) Invasive ABG analysis EtCO2 – concentration of CO2 exhaled in each breath Non-invasive measurement at airway PaCO2 vs.EtCO2

  15. Hypoventilation with shallow breathing

  16. Breath-to-breath measure of ventilatory status Relationship between EtCO2 and RR

  17. Hyperventilation

  18. Capnometer Capnography Some Definitions

  19. Capnometer A Capnometer provides only a numerical measurement of carbon dioxide in mmHg or kPa or Vol.-%

  20. Capnograpy Capnography provides the CO2 value and the waveform of carbon dioxide over time

  23. CO2 Measurement Technology • General: • CO2 measurement technology • Infrared absorption • Technique of airway gas sampling • Main stream vs. side stream vs. Microstream

  24. Sampling Technology • Mainstream sampling - CO2 analysis chamber is in-line between the patient airway and the ventilator circuit • Sidestream sampling - CO2 analysis chamber is within the device. The patient’s expired gas is sucked from the airway and drawn to that chamber through a sampling line.

  25. Conventional main stream technology Monitor Inspiration Expiration Fresh gas

  26. Conventional side stream technology Sample line (Monitor)

  27. Unique solutions for Capnography = Microstream®

  28. Microstream® CO2 • A combination of a unique CO2 sidestream measurement technology and; • FilterLine (proprietary sampling lines) - for single patient use • Only system providing accurate EtCO2 readings for non-intubated patients that receive supplemental O2 and switch between oral and/or nasal breathing

  29. Microstream® CO2— Major benefits • Ease of Use • Reliable Technology • Flexible for all patient types • Versatile for all environments
