Capnography OEM solutions

Microstream™ nanoMediCO₂ OEM module

<p>The Microstream™ nanoMediCO₂™ OEM module is designed for efficiency and flexibility and can be integrated into a wide range of host monitors and devices.</p>

Features

One-third less power, weight, and volume. The nanoMediCO2™ capnograph module is 4th Edition compliant. Reduced power requirements help meet the USB 2.0 industry standard. The module is engineered to promote longer battery life and provide:

  • Measurements of etCO2, FiCO2, and respiration rate values and trends
  • Clear, crisp waveforms and accurate respiratory rates
  • A single, integrated spectroscopy sensor for use across the healthcare continuum
  • CO2-specific infrared technology at a distinct wavelength
  • A low sampling rate of 50 mL per minute to allow for the monitoring of a wide range of patients — from neonates to adults
  • Measurements without impact from other gases (i.e., O2, N2O, He, or inhaled anesthetics)
  • Moisture handling to help reduce complications caused by clogged sampling lines

Accuracy and workflow algorithms

Standard Smart Capnography™ algorithms

The nanoMediCO2™ capnograph module comes standard with two Smart Capnography™ algorithms to help ensure accuracy and streamline workflow:

  • Smart Alarm for Respiratory Analysis™ algorithm (SARA), engineered to recognize and reduce nuisance alarms
  • Smart Breath Detection™ algorithm (SBD), designed to help mitigate the effect of artifact and enable monitoring for non-intubated general care floor patients

Optional Smart Capnography™ algorithms

To help enhance clinical support, the nanoMediCO2™ capnograph module may be upgraded to include:

  • Integrated Pulmonary Index™ algorithm (IPI), which incorporates four real-time respiratory measurements etCO2, respiratory rate, pulse oximetry, and pulse rate — into a single number that represents an inclusive respiratory profile
  • Apnea-Sat Alert™ algorithm (ASA), to track and report apneas per hour to help clinicians identify and quantify recurrent apnea and desaturation events without additional equipment or changes to workflow
  • Oxygen desaturation index (ODI), to measure the number of dips per hour in SpO2, 4% or lower from baseline, with a return to baseline in 240 seconds or less
