Article Synopsis
  • EtCO (end-tidal carbon dioxide) is used to estimate PCO (partial pressure of carbon dioxide) in critically ill patients, particularly in emergency medical services, but the actual correlation between the two is uncertain.
  • A study examined the relationship between EtCO and PCO in over 6,400 intubated patients during critical care transport, focusing on delta PCO values and various patient characteristics.
  • Results showed a significant number of patients had a delta PCO greater than 10 mmHg, with factors like age, sex, transport type, and vital signs being associated with these differences in EtCO and PCO readings.
