Automated respiratory monitoring in sepsis.
The automated respiratory profile allows rapid computation of all the various pulmonary parameters, hence early diagnosis of A.R.D.S. in patients prone to develop that syndrome, as well as sequential follow-up of progression of pulmonary disease. Extubation is unlikely in patients whose (A-a) DO2, QS/Qt, and VD/VT remained higher than 500 mm Hg, 25% and 0.6 respectively.
