Does a change in end-tidal carbon dioxide level predict high altitude mountain sickness?
Background: It is postulated that lack of hypoxic ventilatory response is a predictor for AMS. End-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) is an accurate, noninvasive surrogate measure of ventilation. Objectives: We sought to determine if changes in baseline ETCO2 predicts the development of AMS. Methods: This...
