Relationship between ETCO 2 and PaCO 2 under Changing Capnogram in Ventilated Infants with NAVA: An Observational Study.
Indian Journal of Pediatrics 2023 December 23
This observational study evaluated the validity of end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2 ) as a surrogate for arterial PCO2 (PaCO2 ) in infants on neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA), particularly considering the influence of variable spontaneous breathing on capnography waveforms. The study involved 16 infants, analyzing 50 paired ETCO2 and PaCO2 values. Deming regression analysis highlighted a notably stronger correlation for maximum ETCO2 (r2 = 0.6783, p <0.0001) compared to mean ETCO2 (r2 = 0.5686, p <0.0001) and demonstrated a significantly weaker association for minimum ETCO2 (r2 = 0.1838). These findings emphasize the superior predictive value of maximum ETCO2 in estimating PaCO2 , advocating its reliable use in clinical monitoring, especially given the dynamic capnography associated with NAVA's variable pressures. The results suggest ETCO2 's potential to enhance noninvasive respiratory management, reduce the frequency of blood sampling, and improve overall care for infants requiring mechanical ventilation.
