About the Course

Ventilation Monitoring: Beyond Pulse Oximetry Pulse oximetry doesn’t tell the whole story—and relying on it alone can cause you to miss early respiratory decline. In this concise, practical course, you’ll learn how to assess ventilation at the bedside using tools you already have, with a strong focus on capnography and clinical assessment. Gain the confidence to recognize subtle changes in CO₂ and patient presentation before oxygen saturation drops. What you’ll gain: A clear understanding of why SpO₂ is not enough Practical use and interpretation of capnography (ETCO₂) Early recognition of hypoventilation and respiratory deterioration Simple, actionable assessment strategies you can apply immediately Perfect for nurses who want sharper clinical judgment without unnecessary complexity—so you can catch problems sooner and intervene with confidence.
