Clinical TrialTemperature-related differences in mean expired pump and arterial carbon dioxide in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass.
To investigate the relationship between arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO(2)) and mean expired pump CO(2) during cardiopulmonary bypass (PeCPBCO(2)) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB during steady state, cooling, and rewarming phases of CPB. ⋯ Monitoring the mean expired CO(2) value from the CPB oxygenator exhaust scavenging port with a capnography monitor provides a continuous and noninvasive data source to aid in sweep flow CPB circuit management during CPB.
