Its graphical user interface is designed to deliver clear visual cues to the patient, facilitating controlled breathing. We assessed the utility of controlled hyperventilation in five healthy probands using end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) against capillary CO2 and pH. We have successfully achieved respiratory alkalosis (pH &amp;gt;7.50) between 70% and 90% of the subjects\u2019 baseline ETCO2. The linear mixed-effects modelling demonstrated a significant association between ETCO2 and capillary pH (\u03b2 = \u22120.063, SE = 0.008, P &amp;lt; 0.001). There was a moderate, clinically relevant agreement between capillary and ETCO2 with an offset of 0.48 (1.50 \u2013 (\u22120.54)); however, ETCO2 was significantly associated with capillary CO2 (\u03b2 = 0737, SE = 0.115, P &amp;lt; 0.001) after accounting for repeated measures within individuals. A strong within-individual associations for ETCO2 vs. capillary CO2 as demonstrated (Rrm = 0.857, 95% confidence interval: 0.628\u20130.949, P &amp;lt; 0.001).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We developed a ventilation navigator application to deliver a controlled hyperventilation and assess its feasibility to monitor hypocapnia and respiratory alkalosis in healthy subjects.
