End-tidal CO2monitoring has not been used in this population to date, but recent technical advances and the introduction of surfactant therapy, which improves ventilation-perfusion matching, might improve the clinical utility of end-tidal monitoring.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Objective.\u2003To determine the accuracy and precision of end-tidal CO2 monitoring in NICU patients.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Design.\u2003Nonrandomized recording of simultaneous end-tidal and arterial CO2 pairs.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Setting.\u2003Two university NICUs.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Patients.\u2003Forty-five newborn infants receiving mechanical ventilation who had indwelling arterial access, and a predefined subsample of infants who were &amp;lt;1000 g birth weight, &amp;lt;8 days of age, and who received surfactant therapy (extremely low birth weight [ELBW] &amp;lt;8).<\/jats:p><jats:p>Outcome Measures.\u2003The correlation coefficient, degree of bias, and 95% confidence interval were determined for both the overall population and the ELBW &amp;lt;8 subgroup. Those factors which significantly influenced the bias were identified. The ability of the end-tidal monitor to alert the clinician to instances of hypocarbia or hypercarbia was determined.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Results.\u2003There were 411 end-tidal\/arterial pairs analyzed from 45 patients. The correlation coefficient was 0.833 and the bias was \u22126.9 mm Hg (95% confidence interval, \u00b111.5 mm Hg). The results did not differ markedly in the ELBW &amp;lt;8 infants. Measures of the degree of lung disease, the ventilation index and the oxygenation index, had small influences on the degree of bias. This type of capnometry identified 91% of the instances when the arterial CO2 pressure was between 34 and 54 mm Hg using an end-tidal range of 29 to 45 mm Hg. End-tidal values outside this range had a 63% accuracy in predicting hypocarbia or hypercarbia.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Conclusion.\u2003End-tidal CO2 monitoring in NICU patients is as accurate as capillary or transcutaneous monitoring but less precise than the latter. It may be useful for trending or for screening patients for abnormal arterial CO2 values.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.101.4.648","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,8,13]],"date-time":"2004-08-13T23:44:32Z","timestamp":1092440672000},"page":"648-653","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":81,"title":["Mainstream End-tidal Carbon Dioxide Monitoring in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit"],"prefix":"10.1542","volume":"101","author":[{"given":"Henry J.","family":"Rozycki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Pediatrics and Respiratory Care,Medical College of Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, Virginia; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gregory D.","family":"Sysyn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Pediatrics and Respiratory Care,Medical College of Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, Virginia; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.
