I spoke with my husband who is a Doctor and we both agreed that monitoring your patient at this time would be prudent as they are most likely going into respiratory acidosis. The 60% is not quite a critical value but worthy of monitoring as it could be related to respiration rate and other factors. He would need more information but with what your provided, keep monitoring, run labs, especially PH levels and look at the whole patient to determine why this is occurring and how you can best help the patient.

It should be at least 99.5 percent CO2.

The percent of the atmosphere made out of carbon dioxide is 0.038.
-- Take the number of percent. -- Multiply it by 10,000-- The answer is the number of parts per million. . 10 percent = 100,000 parts per million.
0.04 percent is 400 per million.
This is known as the "Critical Temperature". For example, CO2 has a critical temp of 31.2 degrees C and NH3 has a critical temp of 132 degrees C
Decreased Oxygen, increased CO2, Acidosis
CO2 regulates the body breathing functions. The normal range is 23 to 32. A level of 31 is within the normal range. High levels of CO2 could indicate a breathing problem.
Carbon dioxide (CO2).Actually, the level of CO2 in 2017 is 0.041%.Carbon dioxide makes up 0.041% of the atmosphere. The other main gases are 78.08% nitrogen, 25.95% oxygen, and 0.93% argon, with other trace gases.
