Product Description

Patient Monitor Module CO2 module PN 867040 for  MX400 MX450 MX500 MX550 MX600 MX700

In general, a CO2 module in a patient monitor is a device used to measure the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in a patient's respiratory gases. It is commonly used in medical settings such as hospitals, clinics, and operating rooms to monitor a patient's ventilation and respiratory status. Monitoring CO2 levels can provide valuable information about a patient's respiratory function, including their breathing rate, the adequacy of ventilation, and the presence of certain respiratory conditions.

CO2 modules typically utilize non-invasive methods such as infrared absorption or mainstream/sidestream capnography to measure the concentration of CO2. These modules are often integrated into patient monitoring systems, allowing healthcare professionals to continuously monitor a patient's CO2 levels in real-time. The data collected can be displayed on the patient monitor and used to assess the patient's respiratory status and make informed clinical decisions.

It's important to note that the specific features, specifications, and capabilities of a CO2 module may vary depending on the manufacturer and model.

The CO2 module with part number 867040 is a component used in the IntelliVue patient monitor series, specifically with the MX400, MX450, MX500, MX550, MX600, and MX700 models. This module is designed to provide continuous monitoring of carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in a patient's respiratory gases.

The CO2 module utilizes a capnography technique to measure end-tidal CO2 (EtCO2) and partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2). Capnography is a non-invasive method that measures the concentration of CO2 in exhaled breath, providing valuable information about a patient's respiratory status.

Key features of the CO2 module (867040) may include:

1.Mainstream or sidestream configuration: It may offer a choice between mainstream capnography, where the sensor is directly attached to the patient's airway, or sidestream capnography, where a sample of the exhaled gases is drawn through a sampling tube to a remote sensor.

2.EtCO2 and pCO2 measurements: The module can provide continuous monitoring of end-tidal CO2 levels, which indicate the CO2 concentration at the end of expiration, as well as partial pressure of CO2 values.

3.Waveform display: The CO2 module can display a waveform graph, known as a capnogram, that represents the exhaled CO2 levels over time. This waveform can help clinicians assess the patient's ventilation status, detect abnormalities, and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions.

4.Alarms and alerts: The module is equipped with alarm capabilities to notify healthcare professionals if CO2 levels exceed or fall below certain

5.predefined thresholds. This helps in prompt identification of potential respiratory issues or complications.

6.Integration with patient monitor: The CO2 module is designed to seamlessly integrate with the IntelliVue patient monitor series, allowing the CO2 readings and waveform data to be displayed alongside other vital signs and parameters being monitored.

7.It's important to note that the specific features and specifications of the CO2 module (867040) may vary depending on the model and revision of the module.
