Microstream™ microMediCO₂ OEM module

The Microstream™ microMediCO₂ OEM module is rugged and power efficient, making monitoring simple and accurate even in smaller devices.

Features

Discover the Microstream™ technology advantage.

Microstream™ technology offers unique and highly specific measurement using Molecular Correlation Spectroscopy™. 

  • Measures etCO2, fractional inspired carbon dioxide (fiCO2), respiration rate
  • Clear, crisp CO2 waveforms, even in nonintubated patients
  • Highly accurate CO2 values, even in variable breathing conditions
  • Small, compact size
  • Rugged, reliable technology
  • Fast on power up; fully accurate at first reading
  • Low sampling flow rate of 50 mL per minute, required for neonates
  • Low power consumption
  • RS-232, USB
  • RoHS compliant
  • Full suite of Smart Capnography™ algorithms
    • Integrated Pulmonary Index™ (IPI), measuring adequacy of ventilation and oxygenation
    • Smart Breath Detection™ Algorithm, mitigating the effects of artifact, enabling quality monitoring for non-intubated general floor patients
    • Smart Alarm for Respiratory Analysis™ (SARA) to recognize and reduce nuisance alarms, promoting caregiver alarm vigilance
    • Apnea-Sat Alert™ measuring apneas per hour to help identify and quantify apneas
    • Oxygen desaturation index (ODI) measures values to help identify and quantify apneas and oxygen desaturation events
  • etCO2 sampling solutions for all environments and patient populations
    • Adult, pediatric, neonate
    • Intubated (standard and high humidity)
    • Non-intubated (nasal, oral/nasal) with an option for O2 delivery (standard and high humidity)
    • Smart CapnoLine™ guardian provides continuous nasal and oral CO2 monitoring and oral O2 delivery in upper endoscopy patients without compromise of patient position or endoscopic technique
  • Easy to integrate and versatile for all clinical applications and environments:
    • Procedural sedation
    • General care floor
    • ICU — ventilation management, weaning and post weaning ventilation monitoring
    • NICU
    • Emergency department and prehospital EMS
    • Resuscitation environment
    • Sleep labs
  • Complete OEM integration kit and technical support
