Airway gases
●
Make sure that the gas sampling line is properly connected to the water trap and
the water trap is properly connected to the airway gas module. Gas leaks in these
connections may dilute the gas sample from the patient circuit, thus resulting in
erroneous gas readings. During normal operation, all sampled gas flows out of the
sample gas outlet. Room air is used as reference gas for the oxygen measurement
and it is mixed with the sampled gas. The sampled gas is diluted by room air so
that the fraction of room air in the exhaust gas is about 20%.

Compact airway modules: The message
Sample line blocked
may result if you
attach the sampling line to the water trap after the monitor has completed the
self-check for the module. Attach the sampling lines to the water trap before
turning on the monitor.
