Occurrence of Hypercarbia due to a Defective Unidirectional Valve
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Hypercarbia can occur in spite of adequate ventilation if removal of carbon dioxide from the inspired gases is inadequate. Neither blood pressure nor heart rate is a reliable indicator of hypercarbia.
A 53-year old male, ASA physical status Ⅱwith mild hypertensive patient underwent primary repair because of rotator cuff tear of the shoulder.
Anesthesia was induced with thiopental-succinylcholine and maintained with pancuronium-Halothane-N2O-O2 in a semiclosed circle system.
We report occurrence of hypercarbia due to replacement with an incorrect unidirectional valve which is too small to function properly.
