Overview Principles of Operation FilterLine Pulse Oximetry Displays, Controls and Connectors
The monitor combines Oridion’s Microstream capnography technology with Covidien’s Nellcor™ pulse oximetry technology.
Principles of Operation Capnography The monitor uses Microstream non–dispersive infrared (NDIR) spectroscopy to continuously measure the amount of CO2 during every breath, the amount of CO2 present at the end of exhalation (EtCO2) and during inhalation (FiCO2), and the Respiratory Rate. Infrared spectroscopy is used to measure the concentration of molecules that absorb infrared light. Because the absorption is proportional to the concentration of the absorbing molecule, the concentration can be determined by comparing its absorption to that of a known standard. The Microstream EtCO2 consumables deliver a sample of the inhaled and exhaled gases from the ventilator consumable or directly from the patient (via an oral/nasal cannula) into the monitor for CO2 measurement. Moisture and patient secretions are extracted from the sample, while maintaining the shape of the CO2 waveform. The 50 ml/min. sampling flow rate reduces liquid and secretion accumulation, decreasing the risk of obstruction in the sample pathway in humid ICU environments. Once inside the Microstream CO2 sensor, the gas sample goes through a micro-sample cell (15 microliters). This extremely small volume is quickly flushed, allowing for fast rise time and accurate CO2 readings, even at high respiration rates. The Micro Beam IR source illuminates the micro-sample cell and the reference cell. This proprietary IR light source generates only the specific wavelengths characteristic of the CO2 absorption spectrum. Therefore, no compensations are required when different concentrations of N2O, O2, anesthetic agents and water vapor are present in the inhaled Portable Bedside Capnograph/Pulse Oximeter

Overview
and exhaled breath. The IR that passes through the micro-sample cell and the IR that passes through the reference cell are measured by the IR detectors. The microcomputer in the monitor calculates the CO2 concentration by comparing the signals from both channels. Microstream EtCO2 Consumables The following products comprise the Microstream EtCO2 consumables: Sample Lines and Airway Adapter Sets for Intubated Patients: • FilterLine Set (for non–humid environments).
• FilterLine H Set (for humid environments). • Vitaline H Set (for humid environments and high ambient humidity). Nasal and Oral/Nasal Cannulas for Non-intubated patients: • O2 CO2 Nasal FilterLine – nasal only sampling
• Smart CapnoLine and Smart CapnoLine Plus – oral/nasal sampling for use in procedural sedation. Also available with O2 delivery.
• CapnoLine H – for patients receiving hi–flow oxygen by mask, on long term CPAP or Bi-PAP, or post-op pain management. Also available with O2 delivery. Note: Note:
Smart products provide oral and nasal sampling. H products are for long term use. The generic term FilterLine, used in this manual, is interchangeable with any of the Microstream EtCO2 consumables.
