Abstract Background Capnography is a quantitative and reliable method of determining the ventilatory status of patients. We describe the test characteristics of capnography obtained during Emergency Department triage for screening acidemia. Results We performed an observational, pilot study of adult patients presenting to Emergency Department (ED) triage. The primary outcome was acidemia, as determined by the basic metabolic panel and/or blood gas during the ED visit. Secondary outcomes include comparison of estimated and measured respiratory rates (RR), relationships between end-tidal CO2 (EtCO 2 ) and venous partial pressure of CO 2 , admission disposition, in-hospital mortality during admission, and capnogram waveform analysis. A total of 100 adult ED encounters were included in the study and acidemia ( $$ \left[HC{O}_{3}^{-}\right]\le 22 \text{mEq/L}$$ or $$ pH< 7.35$$ ) was identified in 28 patients. The measured respiratory rate (20.3 ± 6.4 breaths/min) was significantly different from the estimated rate (18.4 ± 1.6 breaths/min), and its area under the receiver operating curve (c-statistic) to predict acidemia was only 0.60 (95% CI 0.51–0.75, p = 0.03). A low end-tidal CO2 (EtCO 2 |
