Overview

This study will compare the sensitivity and specificity of waveform capnography versus colorimetric carbon dioxide detection to identify tracheal placement of the endotracheal tube during intubation of critically ill adults.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient is located in a participating unit (ED or ICU)
  2. Patient is undergoing tracheal intubation.
  3. The clinician intends to use an exhaled CO2 detection device to confirm tracheal placement of the tube.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient is known to be a prisoner
  2. Patient is known to be < 18 years old
  3. A responsible clinician has determined that sole use of either waveform capnography or colorimetric testing is required for optimal care of the patient.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
