What to do if ETCO2 values are inaccurate on Masimo Medical Equipment?
If the measured ETCO2 values on your Masimo Medical Equipment are inaccurate, first replace the batteries, as low battery levels can cause this issue. If replacing the batteries doesn't solve the problem, perform a zeroing procedure and then verify the measurement using a reference gas.
