Example text

7 Again, a capnogram indicates the absence of ventilation. 3)—but there will be no repetitive capnogram. The result is that the carbon dioxide analyzer sounds an apnea alarm. Less obvious than a disconnection is an insidious leak that may lead to hypoventilation and hypoxemia. 5 A leak around the vaporizer (proximal to the check valve in thefreshgas tubing) will permit only fresh gas to escape. Therefore, the patient receives less fresh gas (anesthetic as well as oxygen) than was set by the clinician to be delivered.

The next inspiration brings this gas to the capnograph, and a typical capnogram with a sloping phase IV results. (B) A leak between the patient's mouth and the expiratory valve. During mechanical ventilation, gas will be lost during inspiration, resulting in hypoventilation and a capnogram that indicates hypoventilation (high end-tidal carbon dioxide) but normal configuration. indistinguishable from an incompetent inspiratory valve (see below). 8b), the capnogram shows evidence of hypoventilation.

12). The Jackson-Rees System The Jackson-Rees system requires an FGF about twice the minute volume, as long as ventilation assumes a sinusoidal pattern. When the expiratory pause is shortened, there is less time for carbon dioxide to wash out, and rebreathing is likely unless FGF exceeds twice the minute volume. 12 Frequently used Mapleson systems known by their eponyms. The Jackson-Rees is a Mapleson F system, the Bain a modified Mapleson D system, the Lack a modified Mapleson F, and the Magill a Mapleson A.
