Adjustable CO2 Parameters
Portable Bedside Capnograph/Pulse Oximeter 55
Additionally, the monitor can display CO
2
data in trend form, showing time, date, etCO
2
, RR, alarms, events,
and a CASE START marker. For more information about trend display, see Chapter 11 Using Trends on
page 83 .
When the EtCO
2
High or Low alarm limits are exceeded, the affected numeric will flash to alert the attending
health care professional to the specific parameter that is affected.
A delay may be set on a number of alarms, if desired, so that these alarms will sound only if the parameter
exceeded alarm limits for the set number of seconds. This option can be set using Institutional Defaults. See
Institutional Defaults on page 119 for more information on how to set Institutional Defaults.
If the numeric home screen is chosen, the CO
2
waveform will not appear. Instead, CO
2
data will appear in a
large font, to enable easy viewing, even at a distance. The CO
2
section of the numeric home screen is seen in
Figure 23 - CO2 Section of Numeric Home Screen , below.
Note: For both neonatal and adult patients, the EtCO
2
numeric displayed on the screen is the maximum value
of CO
2
over the last 20 seconds, updated once a second. An etCO
2
alarm will occur based on the EtCO
2
value displayed on the screen.
Note: In high-altitude environments, EtCO
2
values may be lower than values observed at sea level, as
described by Dalton's law of partial pressures. When using the monitor in high-altitude environments, it
is advisable to consider adjusting EtCO
2
alarm settings accordingly.
Note: Measuring mode corrects the CO
2
value for BTPS setting (Body Temperature, Pressure, Saturation)
which assumes that alveolar gases are saturated with water vapor. BTPS should remain on for patient
measurement. For other purposes, it may be turned off in the CO
2
Setup screen.

Parameters
The Capnostream monitor provides the option of adjusting some parameter settings used for CO
2
measurement
to suit your patients, your institution's requirements, or other needs. To change these settings on a temporary
basis, until the device is turned off, follow the procedure below. To set changes as institutional defaults so that
the settings will remain in effect even after the monitor is turned off, see
CO2 Parameters on page 125 .

:
1. On the Home screen, move the control knob to the CO
2
section of the screen, so that it is outlined in blue.
Click the control knob.
2. The CO
2
Setup screen will appear. Move the control knob to the parameter that you wish to change and click
to select that parameter. Move the control knob to select the desired setting and click to select the setting. A
list of the settings that can be changed appears in
Table 10 - Adjustable CO2 Parameters , below.
3. Move the control knob to the HOME button and click to select. The screen will also revert to the Home
screen after a few seconds if no additional actions are taken on that screen, but if the screen timed out and
reverted back to the
HOME screen in this manner, changes will not be saved.
