| Popis: | OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the usefulness of transcutaneous carbon dioxide pressure (TcPCO2) monitoring in patients hospitalized for respiratory disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We used a SenTec TcPCO2 monitor that also determines transcutaneous oxygen saturation (SpO2) by means of a sensor placed behind the ear lobe at a temperature of 42oC. We compared arterial blood gas measurements—PaCO2 and arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2)—with transcutaneous measurements and analyzed the correlation, regression line, and agreement between the 2 methods. RESULTS: Thirty patients (20 men and 10 women) with various respiratory diseases and a mean (SD) age of 71 (13) years were included in the study. The median TcPCO2 was 43.25 mm Hg and the median PaCO2 was 42.6 mm Hg with no significant differences between the 2 measurements. The correlation was significant (ρ=0.979; P |
