Original Title: Capnography for end-tidal CO2 monitoring
Authors' objectives: The objective of this HTA was to assess the clinical and cost-effectiveness of capnography (alone or in combination with other monitoring equipment) compared with no ETCO2 monitoring, standard monitoring (for example, pulse oximetry, pulse rate, blood pressure, visual assessment), or other forms of non-invasive respiration and ventilation monitoring in hospital or pre-hospital settings for patients who are undergoing procedural sedation, receiving CPR, or are in serious or critical condition, or for post-operative patients with known obstructive sleep apnea and/or who are receiving high opioid doses. Access and implementation issues associated with capnography were also evaluated and discussed.
