Cylindrical clear plastic body with thin flexible tubing emerging from both ends. Inside are two connected tubes which lead into the emergikng flexible tubes. Hypothermia was used during cardiac and nuerosurgery, and at low temprature pulmonary excretion of CO2 was blocked, resulting in a large gradient or difference between arterial and end-tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide. Accurate blood analysis machines were developed by Radiometer in Copenhagen as a response to the polio epidemic - The head of laboratory, professor Poul Astrup, and anesthesiologist Bjørn Ibsen discovered the right diagnosis by measuring the pH value in blood using Radiometer's pH meters.
