The following factors are important in considering housing of rabbits:

?? Temperature: Rabbits can withstand moderately cold temperatures and can live outside if they are out of
the wind, but they have difficulty in very warm temperatures.
?? Humidity: When humidity reaches 60 percent, ventilation must be provided. High temperature and high
humidity can lead to heat stroke. High temperatures and low humidity can be tolerated with airflow.
?? Ventilation: Fresh air is necessary for rabbits to be healthy and productive. Stale air can lead to respiratory
problems and disease.
?? Lighting: Rabbits need proper lighting to prime their fur and also for does to be receptive to breeding.
?? Absence of drafts: Cool, damp drafts can cause an animal to become chilled and susceptible to other illnesses.

Your patient is a 15-year-old asthmatic who has been having difficulty breathing for 45 minutes but does not have his Xopenex inhaler with him. Capnography shows an ETCO2 of 45 mmHg. The best way to interpret this finding is:

A) this is a normal ETCO2, indicating that this is a mild asthma attack. B) the patient's ETCO2 first dropped as he began to hyperventilate but now is rising again and may continue to rise to dangerous levels. C) this is a high ETCO2, and the patient requires immediate ventilatory assistance to prevent respiratory arrest. D) this is a low ETCO2 indicating that the patient is hyperventilating and thus in the early stages of an asthma attack.
