2. What is your etCO2 value?____________mmHg
3. Observe CO2 waveform and capture the event by pressing print.
HYPERVENTILATION SIMULATION
1. Increase your respiratory rate by breathing rapidly and target a decrease in your
baseline etCO2 level by 5 mmHg.
2. What is your etCO2 value?____________mmHg
3. Observe the CO2 waveform and capture the event by pressing print.
APNEA SIMULATION
1. With the SpO2 probe on finger, hold your breath long enough to trigger the CO2
apnea alarm (30 seconds without a breath).
2. Observe CO2 waveform, etCO2 value and SpO2 value. Capture the event by
pressing print.
