    ETCO2 recorded in a patient during valve replacement. A, Before cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) (ETCO2=22 mm Hg). B, During CPB (ETCO2=12 mm Hg). C, After CPB (ETCO2=33 mm Hg). PAW, Peak airway pressure;

    ETCO2 recorded in a patient during valve replacement. A, Before cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) (ETCO2=22 mm Hg). B, During CPB (ETCO2=12 mm Hg). C, After CPB (ETCO2=33 mm Hg). PAW, Peak airway pressure; PEEP, peak expiratory airway pressure; RR, respiratory rate; MV, minute ventilation; TVexp, expiratory tidal volume; ETCO2, end-tidal carbon dioxide; ETO2, end-tidal oxygen; FICO2, inspired carbon dioxide fraction; FIO2, inspired oxygen fraction; Ppeak, peak pressure.
