Waveform Capnography Compared to Colorimetric Carbon Dioxide Detection During Tracheal Intubation of Critically Ill Adults

"All patients will undergo colorimetric carbon dioxide (CO2) detection. The reading will be assessed by a clinician at the bedside who will answer yes or no to the following question, asked after 7 breaths have been delivered following intubation: Is the color change consistent with a tube located in the trachea?"
