Controlled O2 therapy may aggravate CO2 retention during acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Of 50 consecutive patients with COPD and acute respiratory failure, 13 required intubation because of CO2 narcosis. With discriminant analysis of their arterial O2 tension (PaO2) and pH on admission, a diagram separated patients into those at high risk and those at low risk for CO2 narcosis. This diagram was then used to predict CO2 narcosis in 73 patients with COPD and acute respiratory failure who were treated with controlled O2. In 16 of these patients CO2 narcosis developed. Thirteen (81%) were predicted by the diagram to be at high risk for this complication. Only 2 (4%) patients judged by the diagram to be at low risk for CO2 narcosis required mechanical ventilation. Utilizing an O2 tension (PO2) and a CO2 tension (PCO2) diagram a patient''s ventilatory response was compared to that of ambulatory patients with COPD. Hypoxemia and acidosis are more discriminatory for CO2 narcosis than hypercapnia.
