Brief Summary

End-tidal CO2 measurements in children will be assessed for their accuracy with arterial CO2 measurements.

Detailed Description

End-tidal and arterial CO2 measurements will be performed in invasively and non-invasively ventilated critically ill children. The endtidal CO2 values will assessed for their accuracy with respect to ...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Children on pressure controlled mechanical invasive or non-invasive ventilation on the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit of the University Children's Hospital Zurich
  • Newborns with a birthweight of at least 2.0 kg
  • Newborns with an age of at least 1 hour (age \> 60 minutes)
  • Children up to the last day of the 13th year of living
  • Ability of care taker or patient to understand verbal and written instructions and the general consent or informed consent in German or English
  • Obtained written general or informed consent as documented by signature

  • Newborns younger than 1 hour (age \<60 minutes)
  • Children with an age of 14 years onwards
  • Missing arterial line
  • Patients dependent on any other kind of respiratory support that is not compatible with the PcCO2-sensor or where a high leakage in the respiratory circuit makes PcCO2 measurements impossible (nasal mask ventilation, low-flow-/high-flow-ventilation, rebreathing mask, high- frequency-oscillation)
  • Patients where the investigators act on the assumption that mechanical ventilation will be discontinued and/or the arterial line will be removed within 6 hours or where only one pair of values (arterial and endtidal CO2) can be compared
  • Patients with a cyanotic shunt lesion with a weight of 15 kg or above
