End-tidal carbon dioxide during pediatric in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation
Resuscitation Aug 20, 2018
Berg RA, et al. - Researchers prospectively investigated if end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) > 20 mmHg during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was linked to survival to hospital discharge. From Collaborative Pediatric Critical Care Research Network intensive care units, children ≥ 37 weeks gestation with chest compressions for ≥ 1 minute and ETCO2 monitoring prior to and during CPR between July 1, 2013 and June 31, 2016 were analyzed. Outcomes found no correlation of mean ETCO2 > 20 mmHg during pediatric in-hospital CPR with survival to hospital discharge. Survivors and non-survivors were not different regarding ETCO2.
