The Capnostream™ 20p patient monitor is built on a legacy of proven performance. For nearly two decades, clinicians have relied on Microstream™ technology for an accurate, continuous view of ventilation adequacy on intubated and non-intubated patients, from neonate to adult. The Capnostream™ 20p monitor, with the Apnea-Sat Alert feature, alerts caregivers to repetitive patterns of apneas and oxygen desaturation, revealing a more complete picture of a patient’s respiratory status.
Review normal and abnormal waveforms to gain an understanding of a patient's level of comfort, sedation and respiratory function.
The Capnostream™ 20p and Capnostream™ 35 patient monitors with Microstream™ includes Smart Alarm Management™ Integrated Algorithms([FOOTNOTE=ECRI Institute.

†SARA evaluates the stability of the detected breath-to-breath intervals and adjusts (adapts) the measurement period accordingly, thus averaging out noise and transient fluctuations when required, providing a more realistic respiratory rate.
††SpO2 data from host required.
