Gas monitoring in clinical practice

Part 1 Clinical perspectives on gas monitoring: why monitor respired gases? chemical method monitoring carbon dioxide water and oxygen and nitrogen anaesthetic gases and vapours sampling gases pressure and volume anaesthesia breathing systems. Part 2 Technologic perspectives on gas monitoring: gas monitoring techniques based on the optical spectrum infrared, raman, photo acoustic, and chemical analysis based on weight - mass spectrometry and piezoelectric detectors gas sampling and flow measurements.
