When it comes to capnography displays, there is considerable variability even within single institutions from site to site. SALG recommendations are clearly not adhered to. Is it time to standardise this at the source? Important work by @SQuAResNet CaVa study team
The Safe Anaesthesia Liaison Group recommends standardising waveform capnography as a white solid filled-in graph at the bottom of the monitor display. Is there compliance with the SALG standard in the UK? #anaesthesia

@Anaes_Journal Our study team are delighted to get our message and findings out - thankyou @Anaes_Journal There is lots of work to be done at an industry and regulatory level, however, with more than 50% of displays modifiable, maybe it's time to call your friendly medical physics dept!?

Very proud of this article by our team and nationwide collaborators. Worrying variation across the UK, between and within hospitals, with at least 36 variants in use. This has a big impact on patient safety. @mathewlyons @AndrewAShepherd @RCoANews @isostandards

How many capnography variants do you encounter every day? We show worrying variation across the UK, between and within hospitals, with at least 36 variants in use. This has a big impact on patient safety. We should urgently implement the SALG standard. https://t.co/HGpJCsne4r

Here's our very own Nick Wilson presenting his fantastic work on CO2 as a marker for ventilation within hospital. Excellent presentation that has earned him the Alastair Spence Award. @EAFestival
