“Case Studies in Capnography: So Much More Than Ventilation”

Stryker & Saxe Healthcare Communications present*“Case Studies in Capnography: So Much More Than Ventilation”

Capnography provides continuous, dynamic assessment of the ventilatory status of patients. This modality can be a helpful monitoring adjunct as a marker of ventilation in patients with ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) matching. Historically, the challenge in interpretation of capnography values has been in patients experiencing V/Q mismatch, specifically patients with pneumonia, ARDS, pulmonary embolism, low cardiac output states and cardiac arrest. This webinar will provide various challenging clinical situations and how capnography can be interpreted and applied to improve outcomes.

Learning Objectives | Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

1. Discuss case examples of normal and abnormal V/Q relationships
2. Describe capnography as an indicator of fluid responsiveness
3. Discuss the integration of capnography into resuscitation
