The aim of the study was to determine the value of intermittent capnometry during cardiopulmocerebral resuscitation in the prehospital care setting. It is proven that partial tension of carbon dioxide at the end of expiration (pEtCO2) directly corresponds to the effectivity of indirect cardiac massage and perfusion of pulmonary vasculature. The authors tried to determine the prognostic value of this parameter with respect to the short-term and long-term survival, respectively.

Keywords: sudden cardiac arrest; cardiopulmonary resuscitation; capnometry; partial end-tidal carbon dioxide tension (pEtCO2)
