End-tidal carbon dioxide and arterial to end-tidal carbon dioxide gradient are associated with mortality in patients with neurological injuries.

ABSTRACT: Pre-hospital end-tidal carbon dioxide (E_tCO₂) monitoring and arterial to end-tidal carbon dioxide gradient (P_a-EtCO₂) have been associated with mortality in patients with traumatic brain injury. Our study aimed to analyze the association between alveolar E_tCO₂ or P_a-EtCO₂ and mortality in patients admitted in intensive care unit (ICU) with neurological injuries. In our retrospective analysis from using large de-identified ICU databases (MIMIC-III and -IV and eICU databases), we included 2872 ICU patients with neurological injuries, identified according to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-9 and -10), who underwent E_tCO₂ monitoring. We performed logistic regression a
