Effects of acute hypoventilation and hyperventilation on exhaled carbon monoxide measurement in healthy volunteers

BACKGROUND: High levels of exhaled carbon monoxide (eCO) are a marker of airway or lung inflammation. We investigated whether hypo- or hyperventilation can affect measured values. METHODS: Ten healthy volunteers were trained to achieve sustained end-tidal CO2 (etCO2) concentrations of 30 (hyperventi...
