Can End Tidal CO2 Predict Mortality in Hemorrhagic Shock? Part 2 with Paramedic Courtney ”Coco” Wham

Coco Wham is a paramedic at the Denver Health Paramedic Division. She is also a 4th year medical student and has a masters in integrated sciences.  She is an author on a recent study in the American Journal of Surgery with our previous guest, Dr. Eric Campion.  Their latest study looked at prehospital ETCO2 values and if they were predictive of death and need for massive transfusion as compared to commonly accepted measurements, such as systolic blood pressure and shock index.  The new study is titled, "Prehospital ETCO2 is predictive of death in intubated and non-intubated patients."  We discuss this study with her and what's next for this research.  We also touch on why prehospital providers should get involved with research.
