Monitoring
This will only last a few seconds, and the LEGI will change to a steady
green when the module is ready.
b. IRMA (mainstream):
Using the appropriate adult or pediatric IRMA airway
adapter, snap the IRMA module in place onto the
adapter. The LED on top of the module will begin
flashing in green as the IRMA self-zeroes, and the
message area on the PPM3 will display "CO
2
Warming
Up." This will only last a few seconds, and the LED
will change to a steady green when the module
is ready.
4. Apply to patient or breathing circuit:
a. ISA (sidestream):
Connect an appropriate nasal cannula or other sampling line with a
male Luer Lock fitting to the Nomoline adapter. Apply the other end
to the patient according to the instructions supplied.
Note
– Using sampling lines or cannulas with an inner diameter larger than 1 mm
will increase the ISA’s total response time.
b. IRMA (mainstream):
Connect the IRMA airway adapter between the breathing circuit Y-
piece and the patient’s endotracheal tube – or into any other suitable
ventilation system. Perform a tightness check of the breathing circuit.
5. With either the ISA or IRMA module the CO
2
waveform and numeric
parameter values should appear on the PPM3 main screen within a few
seconds. Verify parameter values and waveforms for correctness.
