NOTE
To extend the lifetime of the water trap and CO2 module, disconnect the water
trap and set the working mode of the module to standby when CO2 monitoring is
not required.
The CO2 measurement can be used, with specified accessories, with intubated and
non-intubated adult, pediatric. With patients, a sample of the respiratory gas is
drawn from the patient's breathing circuit through an airway adapter and a gas
sampling line.
CAUTION
The water trap collects water drops condensed in the sampling line and therefore
prevents them from entering the module. If the collected water reaches a certain
amount, you should drain it to avoid blocking the airway. Dispose of accumulated
fluids in accordance with the hospital policy or your local regulations.
The water trap has a filter preventing bacterium, vapor and patient secretions
from entering the module. After a long-term use, dust or other substances may
compromise the performance of the filter or even block the airway. In this case,
replace the water trap. Replacing the water trap once a month is recommended.
Or, replace the water trap when it is detected leaky, damaged or contaminated.
