CAPNOGRAPH (Main stream Etco2)

The Capnograph Mainstream EtCO₂ Monitor is a compact respiratory monitoring device designed to measure end-tidal carbon dioxide and airway respiration rate using the mainstream measurement method. It is suitable for professional monitoring support in emergency departments, intensive care units, operating rooms, respiratory departments, and clinical environments where ventilation monitoring is required for adult, child, and infant patients.

This mainstream EtCO₂ capnograph connects with the patient’s respiratory tract through an airway adapter and breathing tube when used with a ventilator or anesthetic machine. The device is designed to support real-time monitoring of EtCO₂ and AwR during ventilation-related care workflows. Its portable structure, digital display, alarm functions, and battery-powered operation make it practical for clinical teams that need focused capnography monitoring in critical care and procedure-based environments.

The device includes end-tidal CO₂ measurement, respiration rate measurement, optional unit selection, audible and visual alarm support, alarm silencing, over-limit alarm function, low battery alarm, “Adapter off” prompt, zero calibration support, and atmospheric pressure and temperature compensation. It should be used by trained healthcare professionals only, and all readings should be interpreted according to patient condition, clinical protocol, and the user manual.

Applications

This mainstream capnograph EtCO₂ monitor is suitable for emergency departments, ICU areas, operation theatres, respiratory departments, recovery areas, and ventilation-related monitoring setups. It is designed for use with ventilators or anaesthetic machines, where monitoring of end-tidal CO₂ and airway respiration rate is required as part of professional patient care workflow.

The device is intended for adult, child, and infant patient monitoring when used with the appropriate airway adapter and compatible ventilation or anaesthesia setup. The breathing tube, except for the airway adapter, is not part of the device as per provided information.

How to Use

1. Insert 2 AAA dry batteries and check device readiness before connecting to the patient circuit.
2. Use the device with a compatible ventilator or anesthetic machine as per clinical requirements.
3. Connect the device to the patient’s respiratory tract using the airway adapter and breathing tube setup.
4. Switch on the capnograph and allow it to initialize according to the user manual.
5. Check EtCO₂ value, airway respiration rate, waveform display, and selected unit setting during monitoring.
6. Set alarm limits for end-tidal CO₂ and respiration rate according to clinical protocol.
7. Respond appropriately to audible, visual, low battery, over-limit, or “Adapter off” alerts.
8. After use, disconnect safely, clean the device exterior as recommended, and store it properly.
