Versatile mainstream or sidestream monitoring
The Dual CO2 module is a complete gas analyzer that is ready
for both mainstream and sidestream CO2 monitoring. The rugged design,
solid state mainstream sensor, which can be fitted with either
mainstream or sidestream adapter, provides versatile CO2 monitoring. In
both modes, the module provides CO2 concentration and respiratory rates
calculation automatically. Its rapid response time provides crisp,
accurate, diagnostic waveform on a breath-by-breath basis or selectable
5, 10, or 20 second averaging.
The Dual CO2 module is compatible with the SolarĀ® modular products. Including CO2 measurement as an
integral part of these advanced patient monitors offering many
advantages over stand alone devices. The inspired CO2, expired CO2,
respiration rate and capnograph are easily viewed along with other
important vital sign information in one convenient location. Selectable
alarm limits for these values including no breath detect are
incorporated into the overall alarm structure of the system. The values
are stored in memory which can be printed. The compact modular design reduces clutter while allowing
modules to be easily moved between beds reducing department cost.
