The authors describe two cases of metabolic acidosis, caused by diabetic ketoacidosis in the first case and by dehydration following gastroenteritis in the second one. Both patients were followed with noninvasive end-tidal CO (ETCO) monitoring. A correlation between EtCO and PCO and HCO has been established in the literature. Noninvasive ETCO is used in only 5-6% of metabolic emergencies. In contrast, users described its use as easy and convenient.
作者描述了两例代谢性酸中毒病例，第一例由糖尿病酮症酸中毒引起，第二例由胃肠炎后的脱水引起。两名患者均接受了无创呼气末二氧化碳（EtCO）监测。文献中已证实EtCO与PCO和HCO之间存在相关性。在仅5%-6%的代谢性急症中使用无创EtCO监测。相比之下，使用者称其使用起来简便易行。
