  • Summary

  • Last episode, we talked about how carbon dioxide is formed in the body, and how it gets from the cells to the lungs. Now that it has arrived there – what next?! In this episode, Keith and Courtney talk about what happens when carbon dioxide diffuses from the pulmonary capillary into the alveoli to be exhaled. 

    They break down the Alveolar Ventilation Equation and the Alveolar Gas Equation into a more user-friendly concept you can apply to your everyday patient and how it is actually useful after the anaesthesia itself. Keith discusses the loss of one of his patients during the recovery period and Courtney shares ways you can continue to support and monitor those patients in this critical time of anaesthesia – after all, your pulse oximeter and capnograph can still be used after they are extubated!
