Capnography is an advantageous tool due to its noninvasive characteristics, ease of use, and immediacy of data. In out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, the use of the end-tidal carbon dioxide appears to be an appropriate complementary tool to support clinical decisions, such as correct positioning of the endotracheal tube, optimizing ventilation in CPR, and as a predictor of ROSC.
