Because being almost sure isn’t enough...
| "To protect against unrecognized esophageal intubation, confirmation of tube placement by an expired CO2 ...detection device is necessary.” |
| AHA Guidelines 2000 for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care, Part 6, p. I-101 |
Timing is critical in emergency situations. The C-CO2™ confirms proper placement of the tracheal tube. For use in the ER, ICU and transport.
| “Tracheal intubation is suggested, but may not be confirmed by: bilateral breath sounds...(and) sounds over the epigastrium....Tracheal intubation is confirmed by the detection of CO2 in the exhaled gas.” |
| AARC Clinical Practice Guidelines Management of Airway Emergencies. Respiratory Care, 1995, V 40: p. 749 |
| “...end-tidal CO2 detection verifies tracheal intubation and leads to fewer adverse outcomes.” |
| ASA Practice Guidelines for Management of the Difficult Airway, October 1992, 2002: p.14 |
The following organizations have developed guidelines stating CO2 detection should be combined with clinical assessment to verify correct tracheal tube placement:
-
American Heart Association
