| Resumen |
The use of self rescuers in mines is likely to be associated with inhalation of CO2. This study investigates tolerance to the effects of 2, 3, and 4% CO2 under conditions similar to those of miners wearing a self-rescuer. The average minute volume increased with CO2 concentration. Individuals showed considerable differences. A majority of subjects experienced breathlessness and headache when inhaling 4 and 5% CO2. The design of respirators for use under conditions in which increased CO2 might be inhaled should allow for the resulting increased ventilation. |
