LOINC description : The ventilatory equivalent for carbon dioxide (VEqCO2) is the ratio of ventilation
to carbon dioxide production at a point in time. It is an alternative measurement
to the slope of ventilation to carbon dioxide production as calculated for the duration
of exercise. VEqCO2 and time to lowest VEqCO2 may be predictors of mortality in patients
with heart failure. [PMID: 22619715];
