14 Monitoring Carbon Dioxide

Using the Mainstream CO2 Extension (M3016A)

4Place the transducer on the high cell of the calstick. The reading on the screen should be within ±1 mmHg of the value on the calstick within one minute.

5If both readings are in range, you can leave calibration mode and begin monitoring. If either of the readings is out of range, calibrate the transducer.

Calibrating the Transducer

1Check that the windows on the calstick are clean and clear.

2Place the transducer on one of the calstick cells and select Start Cal 1.

3Enter the calibration value printed on the calstick then press Confirm to start calibration.

4When the message CO2 CAL 1 calibration done - start CAL 2 calibration appears, put the transducer on the other cell and select Start Cal 2 then press Confirm.

5When you see the message CO2 calibration completed. Leave calibration mode., calibration is complete.

6Select Cal Mode to switch calibration mode off. You cannot monitor in calibration mode.

Attaching and Removing the CO2 Transducer

 

Airway Adapter

1 Open the latch and place the

 

transducer onto the airway adapter.

 

Place the airway adapter in the

 

patient’s breathing circuit between

 

the endotracheal tube and the Y-

CO2 Transducer

piece. You may see the CO2 SENSOR

 

WARM UP message until the

 

transducer reaches operating

 

temperature. Wait until this

 

disappears before starting the

 

measurement.
