However, when these same subjects begin to exercise, increasing the ventilatory rate by a factor of 2.5, the arterial and end tidal gas concentrations become approximately equal [ 67 ] . Presumably, at the higher rates of ventilation, there is relatively less time for exchange with the airways, and the artifact decreases.
Primary diagnoses (based on ICD-9 diagnostic codes) of patients requiring ICU admission and ventilatory support are summarized in Table 2. The diagnostic categories included: respiratory, 75 (33%); cardiovascular, 72 (32%); digestive, 33 (15%); and other (20%).
Mechanical ventilation in patients with ARDS has been reported to be associated with pneumonia and lung injury [ 44 45 46 47 ] . Properly constructed trials are still needed to define the best use of mechanical ventilation in sepsis, although early ventilatory support was a component of the recent early goal-directed intervention by Rivers and coworkers [ 30 ] .
Baseline measurements were made following a 1 h steady state of conventional mechanical ventilation using the following ventilatory settings: FiO 2 0.85, PEEP 10 cmH 2 O, inspiratory time 30%, respiratory frequency 16 ± 2 bpm, V T 728 ± 32 ml.
Once a patient with compromised respiratory or vital functions is placed on life support hardware, sophisticated monitoring devices such as continuous pulse oximetry, continuous mixed venous oximetry, and capnography effectively monitor hemodynamic and ventilatory parameters.
