Capnography Mask
The Dual Capnogrophy Mask provides continual monitoring of carbon
dioxide being exhaled from the mouth and nose while administering
oxygen to the patient. The integrated oxygen and sampling line
provides quick and simple operation.
Capnography provides the
following vital information:
- Hypoventilation
- Hyperventilation
- Confirming, maintaining and assisting intubation
- Return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC)
- Measuring cardiac output during cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) |
- End tidal CO2 as predictor of
resuscitation outcome
- Monitoring sedated patients
- Ventilating head injury patients
- Perfusion warning sign
- ETCO2 in asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary
diseases (COPD), and congestive heart
failure (CHF)

PCO2 Inspiration and Expiration
Phase 1 is the section
between A and B where inhalation has ended and exhalation
begins.
Phase 2 is the section
between B and C which represents
continued exhalation from the remaining dead space and proximal
alveoli.
Phase 3 is the section
between C and D which represents airflow from the alveoli during
uniform ventilation (respiratory plateau). D is the end-tidal point
where CO2 concentration is highest and where the monitoring of the
values is measured.
Phase 4 is the section
between D and E which represents
inspiration.
