End-tidal carbon dioxide (ETco2) has been shown to correlate with coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) during CPR and has been proposed as a useful noninvasive monitor of CPR efficacy. The effects of therapeutic epinephrine dosing on ETco 2 and CPP in six dogs were examined. Ventricular fibrillation wa

## Summary Postsurgical infection risk is correlated with subcutaneous tissue oxygenation. Mild hypercapnia augments cutaneous perfusion. We tested the hypothesis that peripheral tissue oxygenation increases as a function of arterial PCO~2~ in surgical patients. Twenty patients were randomly assign
