Development of a Novel Infant Volumetric Capnography Simulator: Making the Invisible Visible Improves Understanding and Safety.

Introduction: Volumetric capnography depicts volumetric capnograms [ie, the plot of expired carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) over the tidal volume]. This bench study aimed to determine the reliability, accuracy, and precision of a novel infant simulator for volumetric capnography. This simulator would be clinically valuable for teaching purposes because it reflects the entire cardiopulmonary physiology within 1 breath.
