To facilitate safe care, nurses must have a good understanding of this monitoring method. This introductory session explores the physiology of ventilation and perfusion and the use of EtCO2 monitoring to evaluate physiological status. Real-time patient simulation is applied to explore EtCO2 waveforms. National guidance and care considerations are discussed.Learners must attend/view/read the entire activity, read Implicit Bias impacts patient outcomes, and complete the associated evaluation to be awarded the contact hours or CERP. No partial credit will be awarded.
