Influence of Temperature on Transcutaneous Blood Gas Diffusion: CAPNOS Project

France40 participantsStarted 2023-01-23

Plain-language summary

The measurement of tcpCO2 has many disadvantages: the need for regular calibration (4 to 8 hours) of the sensor, the fact that the sensor heats the skin (risk of burns), the impossibility of measurement in ambulatory and the high cost of the monitor. In order to develop a new type of tcpCO2 sensor, it is necessary to acquire knowledge in fundamental physiology on the diffusion of CO2 through the skin.
