End-tidal Oxygen Can Reliably Predict the Arterial Partial Pressure of Oxygen Among Emergency Department Patients

Completed

Conditions studied: Intubation Complication

In brief

Recent studies have shown that end tidal oxygen (ETO2) monitoring can be useful to determine the adequacy of preoxygenation. No study has assessed the correlation between ETO2 values obtained during preoxygenation to predict the PaO2 in patients undergoing RSI in the ED. Our objective was to determine whether a novel equation using the ETO2 at the end of preoxygenation could reliably estimate the partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2) in critically-ill ED patients undergoing RSI.
