Alaris® EtCO2 module
Bringing continuous respiratory monitoring to all patient care areas
The Alaris
® EtCO2 module brings continuous respiratory monitoring to all patient care areas with Oridion's patented Microstream
® technology. The module includes easy-to-use, plug and play technology and is effective with both intubated and non-intubated patients as well as oral or nasal breathing patients. Its customized profiles add flexibility across all patient care areas. Oridion's Microstream
® technology and FilterLine
® disposables eliminate the need for moving parts, external sensors or routine calibration.
The Alaris
® EtCO2 module disposables utilize intubated EtCO2 and non-intubated EtCO2 (with or without O2 administration) FilterLine
® disposables from Oridion, which reduces sampling line occlusion and ensure accurate flow rates.
The Alaris® EtCO2 module:
- Supports current ASA and JCAHO standards mandating CO2 monitoring for all anesthesized patients (intubated and non-intubated)¹
- Provides an additional safety net at the bedside to continuously monitor patient respiratory response to infusion therapy
- Includes customizable alarm limits by care area utilizing the Guardrails® Suite MX
- Provides the unique ability for the clinician to automatically pause a PCA infusion if a patient falls below your hospital-defined respiratory limits when used with the Alaris® PCA module
