yes it has it's place and a very big one in our service. We currently use it as much if not more than spo2. we are using it on non intubated pt's that are in resp. distress and this also backs us when we decide to RSI these pt's in resp. distress. Also it is great on intubated pt's for tube confirmation. we have realized that in cases of cardiac arrest that you can ventilate pt's better or just as well and have somewhat better results when waveform capnography is in place
