Summary

Capnographs measure carbon dioxide in the breath, giving important data on many diseases and treatments. Capnography, second edition, deals with the clinical application of capnographs and the basic physiology of carbon dioxide. Technical chapters describe how the instruments work; clinical chapters describe the use of capnographs as a diagnostic tool.

Capnography Summary

Capnography by J. S. Gravenstein (University of Florida)

In recent years capnography has gained a foothold in the medical field and is fast becoming a standard of care in anaesthesiology and critical care medicine. In addition, newer applications have emerged which have expanded the utility of capnographs in a number of medical disciplines. This new edition of the definitive text on capnography reviews every aspect of this valuable diagnostic technique. An introductory section summarises the basic physiology of carbon dioxide generation and transport in the body. A technical section describes how the instruments work, and a comprehensive clinical section reviews the use of capnography to diagnose a wide range of clinical disorders. Edited by the world experts in the technique, and with over 40 specialist contributors, Capnography, second edition, is the most comprehensive review available on the application of capnography in health care.

Capnography Reviews

Review of the first edition: '... addresses the physiologic and technological considerations that need to be understood to make capnography a clinically useful tool and should be standard reading for those who depend on it as an anesthetic monitor.' Anesthesiology Journal
Review of the first edition: '... a good addition to the reference library of departments of anesthesiology, critical care and emergency medicine.' Canadian Journal of Anesthesiology
'The inclusion of informative chapters on neonatal monitoring, sleep medicine, sedation, and veterinary medicine usefully widens the appeal of the book ... [It] should be seen as an essential specialist reference book for the departmental library that those interested and/or needing to gain knowledge in capnography ... can dip in and out of when required.' British Journal of Anaesthesia
