Capnography texts have been written in the clinical settings of anesthesiology, critical care and ventilator management ad nauseum, but never for the paramedic....unti l now.

This book is the first of its kind written by a paramedic for paramedics to use in their everyday medicine. Capnography is arguably one of the most powerful tools in a paramedics' repertoire. From the basics to V/Q ratio assessment, hopefully this book will serve as the educational foundation for paramedics to realize the full capabilities of capnography as it relates to EMS.
