Fig 1 Fast-track extubation protocol instituted for all cardiac surgery patients. (ABG = arterial blood gas; CPAP = continuous positive airway pressure; CTU = Cardiothoracic Unit; FiO2 = fraction of inspired oxygen; PaO2 = partial pressure of oxygen content in arterial blood; pCO2 = partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterial blood; PEEP = positive end-expiratory pressure; PS = pressure support; RN = registered nurse; RT = respiratory therapist; SpO2 = peripheral capillary oxygen saturation.)
