A comparison of carotid doppler ultrasonography and capnography in evaluating the efficacy of cardiopulmonary resuscitation: The first study
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine Jan 11, 2018
Yilmaz G, et al. - Researchers here performed a comparison of the carotid blood flow measurement with end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) measurement and evaluated whether this method could be used as an alternative method to capnography in the assessment of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) efficacy. Observations revealed a low correlation between the PSV and ETCO2 values. With effective CPR, they obtained results close to carotid blood flow in normal healthy individuals. However, carotid blood flow measurement results during CPR were not as valuable as ETCO2 in expressing CPR efficacy.
