Question: Can sigh breaths (Sighs) application during high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) decrease partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO₂) levels?
Finding: The mean PaCO₂ level after Sighs during HFOV was significantly decreased compared to that after HFOV alone (mean difference, -3.6 mmHg).
Meaning: HFOV plus Sighs functionality can reduce PaCO₂ levels. However, further studies are required to conclusively determine the effects of Sighs.

Availability of Capillary Blood Gas Analysis in Neonate

Jong Tae Jeong, Su Young Yun, Ran Lee, Jae Ho Hyun, Gyu Young Jung

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(4):449-453. Published online April 15, 2002

Purpose : Arterial blood gas analysis is frequently performed in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to evaluate ventilation and the metabolic state of critically ill infants. In occasions when umbilical arterial catheterization is not available, frequent arterial puncture is mandatory. This requires some technical skill and may occasionally have side effects. So we studied the validity of capillary blood gas...

Changes in Arterial Blood Gas in Crying Neonates

Yeo Hyang Kim, Heng Mi Kim

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(11):1496-1501. Published online November 15, 1999

Purpose : Arterial blood gas and pH measurements are the standard by which adequacy of oxygenation and ventilation are assessed. The major problem with arterial punctures is that they can rarely be done without disturbing the neonates. Crying during arterial puncture usually results in change in respiratory patten and thus may result in significant changes in blood gas values Methods :...

Arterial Blood Gas Analysis in Asthmatic Children

Dae Young Choi, Kyeong Cheol Yoon, Kang Woo Park, Sung Won Kim

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1993;36(10):1375-1382. Published online October 15, 1993

The purpose of this study is to verify severity of asthma in asthmatic patients through the arterial blood gas analysis. Subjects were consisted of 103 patients (74 boys and 29 girls), between 2~13 years of ages. Clinically, asthmatic patients were classified into 6 groups, i.e., group 0(no rhonchi), group 1(rhonchi only), group 2(mild attack), group 3(moderate attack), group 4(severe attack), group...
