Precaution
Warning
⚫
Animal monitors that measure CO
2
, anesthetics, and/or respiratory mechanics
cannot be used as apnea monitoring and/or recording equipment. While these
products provide an apnea alarm, the alarm condition begins with the elapsed time
from when the last breath was detected. However, there are a number of
physiological indications for the clinical diagnosis of real apnea events.
⚫
The CO
2
alarm is not activated until the first breath is detected after the monitor is
turned on or the animal is discharged.
⚫
Accuracy of the CO
2
and breathing rate measurements may be impaired due to
improper attachment of the sensor or due to certain animal conditions and certain
environmental conditions.
⚫
If the tube connection is faulty, loose, or damaged, gas may leak and the accuracy
of the measurement may be lowered, resulting in poor breathing. To prevent this,
make sure all the connections are secure and check the connection according to
standard clinical procedures to ensure that there are no leaks.
Warning
⚫
Industrial safety: Carefully dispose of used sampling tubes and T-connectors, as
they may cause infection.
⚫
Optimize reaction time by minimizing dead space and keeping sample collection
tubes as short as possible. Long sampling tubes can lead to poor accuracy and
slow response times for sidestream measurement techniques.
⚫
Do not place the airway adapter between the suction catheter and the
endotracheal tube when using the sample collection line as a closed suction device
for tuberous animals. This is to ensure that the airway adapter does not interfere
with the function of the suction catheter.
