Capnograph Sidestream CA10S

.pdf Brochure

The CONTEC CA10S is a side-stream capnograph designed for monitoring end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) levels in a patient’s exhaled breath. It is a compact and portable device commonly used in medical settings for respiratory monitoring during procedures and anesthesia management.

The CA10S utilizes a sampling line connected to the patient’s airway through which a small amount of exhaled breath is drawn into the device for analysis. It measures the concentration of CO2 in the sampled breath and provides real-time data on the ETCO2 levels.

By continuously monitoring ETCO2, the CA10S enables healthcare professionals to assess a patient’s ventilation status, ensuring proper gas exchange in the lungs. It helps in detecting respiratory abnormalities, such as hypoventilation, hyperventilation, or changes in airway integrity.

The device features a user-friendly interface with a clear display that shows waveform and numerical data, allowing for easy interpretation of the ETCO2 readings. It also offers alarm functions to alert caregivers when ETCO2 levels fall outside the desired range, helping ensure timely intervention.

The portability of the CA10S makes it suitable for a wide range of healthcare settings, including operating rooms, emergency departments, and ambulances. Its compact size and ease of use make it convenient for healthcare professionals to monitor and manage a patient’s respiratory status.

In summary, the CONTEC CA10S side-stream capnograph is a reliable and portable device used for monitoring end-tidal CO2 levels. Its ability to provide real-time data on ventilation status makes it valuable in respiratory monitoring during procedures, anesthesia management, and critical care situations.
