Effect of Bicarbonate and THAM on Apnea-Induced Hypercarbia

  • Conference paper
Advances in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

Abstract

The aim of this study is to compare the effect of THAM (trisbuffer tromethamine) with the effect of sodium bicarbonate administered during induced respiratory acidemia plus 10 minutes of apnea with apneic oxygenation. This condition may simulate some aspects of the respiratory component of CPR episodes.
