There is truck loads of evidence to suggest pulse oximetry is a lagging indicator- and is not an appropriate guide to ventilation. Ventilation and oxygenation are very different beasts. study's have shown patients saturating at 94% with an end tidal of 100mmhg who have had significant periods of...

Thanks for your feedback guys/girls. Just wondering do any of you have any evidence that has been peer reviewed showing nasal canulla end tidal in the pre hospital setting?? It's pretty tough to find...or non existent!!

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone out there uses end tidal capnography in the form of nasal specs (or anything else) to monitor ETCO2 in non-intubated self ventilating patients?? I'm from Australia and doing a research proposal to potentially have this introduced for monitoring ventilations of our...
