This course also goes over anesthesia monitoring equipment and what actually works on birds, as well as machine and basic equipment set-up. She concludes with a discussion of common anesthetic protocols used in avian patients. View the recording, then complete (and pass) the brief post-test to earn 1 hour of continuing education credit.
Capnometry measures the maximum value of carbon dioxide (CO2) obtained at the end of expiration or end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2). There is good correlation between ETCO2 and arterial CO2 in birds and mammals and capnography can be used as a reliable tool to evaluate the adequacy of ventilation in these species. Capnography can only be used to identify trends in reptiles because of cardiac shunting of blood past the reptilian lungs.
