Talk:CO₂ retention

What on Earth does " a vent schedule of 4scfm/person displacement." mean?Blaise 21:43, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Definition SCFM -- The term SCFM stands for Standard Cubic Feet Per Minute, referenced to a pre-specified pressure, temperature, and relative humidity. In most cases, SCFM is referenced to 14.7 PSIA, 68°F, and 0% relative humidity. By specifying these parameters, the mass flow of compressed air and gas systems is clearly defined.

As you may or may not Gasses expand/contract acording to a number of things. --62.220.161.10 10:47, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Merge

Should this article be merged into Hypercapnia? I know that the terms are not identical, but it is one of the principal causes of hypercapnia. Neither article is large and it would seem to be sensible to collect related information together. For what it's worth, Carbon dioxide retention is already a redirect to Hypercapnia. --RexxS (talk) 14:03, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

I agree, it does seem like a great article to merge. Thanks RexxS! --Gene Hobbs (talk) 16:22, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

I will try to get round to it when I have better bandwidth. • • • Peter (Southwood) ^(talk): 03:07, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

I'm looking for the normal amount of CO2 in my blood. I was hospitalized with 116. How does that compare with average (safe)?

How do I fix my high level of Co2
