What we say...

First Impressions.....For such a small device, we were mightily impressed with the innovative, pocket-sized CapnoEasy.

Like the name suggests, it’s so easy to use; with an intuitive menu for adjusting alarm limits, changing units of measurement or activating the zeroing procedure.

General Overview.....This convenient, battery-powered, mainstream device can be used to monitor exhaled carbon dioxide levels & the respiration rate of adult, paediatric or infant patients; when breathing via either an endotracheal tube or a face mask (see illustrations).

Its ultra-compact sensor body houses the waveform display, control button keypad & CO₂ concentration detector. CapnoEasy simply clips on top of a disposable Airway Adapter which attaches directly to the ET tube or mask.

CapnoEasy is therefore the ideal device to prevent unrecognised oesophageal intubation; the unintended insertion of a breathing tube into the oesophagus (the tube leading to the stomach) instead of the windpipe (trachea).

How does it work.....Invisible infrared light beams are shone through the clear adapter and are partially absorbed by the mixture of gases in the patient’s respiratory airflow. By detecting two wavelengths of infrared light with different CO₂ absorption characteristics and comparing the ratios, the carbon dioxide concentration in each breath is calculated.

Measurements can be displayed in your choice of units (kPa is the default at power up and mmHg or % can be selected quickly in the straightforward menu) whilst the on screen battery indicator provides notification of power status at a glance.

Audible & visual alarms warn you of High/Low EtCO₂ & RR, Apnea, Low Battery & Check Adapter situations plus there’s a useful Alarm Mute button to give 2 minutes silence whilst you deal with the cause of the alarm.

Accessories & Consumables.....In addition to the manufacturer’s own-brand airway adapters in both Adult (2101-00) & Pediatric/Infant (2102-00) sizes, CapnoEasy can also be used with Respironics’ Pediatric/Adult (6063-00) and Neonatal/Pediatric (6312-00) Airway Adapters.

Powered by 2 x AAA Alkaline or Lithium Batteries (not included).

The moulded casing incorporates a loop for attaching to your own carrying strap or lanyard if so desired. A storage/carrying case is available as an option to help protect your CapnoEasy when not in use.
