Prehospital Normoventilation in Critically Ill Anaesthetised Patients Cannot Be Reliably Monitored by Capnography—A Retrospective Observational Study

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 8, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background End‐tidal carbon dioxide capnography (EtCO2) is widely used to guide intubated patients' ventilation. Current guidelines for prehospital advanced airway management assume a gradient of approximately 0.67 kPa between EtCO2 and arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2).
