Respiratory Support for Pharmacologically Induced Hypoxia in Neonatal Calves by C. G. Donnelly, C. T. Quinn, S. G. Nielsen, S. L. Raidal

“…When used as the first treatment, CPAP was associated with significantly decreased arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide but did not increase PaO2. These results suggest that the use of CPAP may represent a practical method for correction of hypercapnia associated with inadequate ventilation in a field setting, and further research is required to characterise the use of CPAP with increased inspired oxygen concentrations.…”
