For best fit and compatibility, Invivo Research strongly recommends the use of the
Invivo CO2 Sampling Kit (Part No. 9010D), which contains all the above tubing and
endotracheal tube adaptor.
The following sizes of sampling nasal cannulae are available:
Part No. Description
9012 Adult CO2 Cannula
9013 Pediatric CO2 Cannula
9014 Infant CO2 Cannula
9015 Intermediate Infant CO2 Cannula
CAUTION
Do not allow the tubing to become kinked so that the sample flow is reduced or cut off.
Be careful that the tubing remains clear of any table moving mechanisms which may
kink or cut the tubing.
Figure 4-9. The EtCO2 Display
(1) Nasal Cannula. The nasal cannula is of the "around-the-ear" type. Place the
nasal pieces gently inside the nose, loop the excess tubing over the patient's
ears and then down under the chin. The tubing may then be fitted by sliding
the plastic ring up until the cannula is secure and comfortable.
(2)
Endotracheal Adaptor.
When using the endotracheal adaptor, attach the
Nafion Dryer Tube before attaching the endotracheal adaptor to the
endotracheal tube. Take great care not to dislodge or move the endotracheal
tube when attaching the adaptor.
4.5.3 Associated Displays. ( See Figure 4-9 ) The EtCO2 Display is located to the right of NIBP
(if P2 is Off) or SpO2 (if P2 is On) on the bottom of the Normal Screen. The following is a
description of the EtCO2 display:
a.
EtCO2 Numeric.
(
Item 1
) A numeric indication of the patient's EtCO2 reading in
mmHg or, if option is installed, kPa.
b. Inspired CO2 Numeric. ( Item 2) A numeric indication of the patient's inspired
CO2 reading in mmHg or, if option is installed, kPa.
