Avoiding unrecognised oesophageal intubation The @RCoA & @dasairway have agreed to drop ‘no trace wrong place’ The message now is that we need to exclude oesophageal intubation by identifying SUSTAINED EXHALED CO2 This requires 4 elements -CO2 rises & falls with respiration -sustained (non-fading, >7 cycles) -amplitude >1 KPa -clinically appropriate It replaces ‘no trace wrong place’ which is insufficient & therefore inadequate See these two updated webpages Sustained exhaled CO2 rcoa.ac.uk/safety-standards-… Prevention of future deaths rcoa.ac.uk/safety-standards-… @AAGBI @AndyHiggsGAA @NicholasChrimes
