monitoring of non-intubated patients.
Numerical and waveform information is presented on a bright Cold Cathode Display (CCD) with user
adjustable contrast to optimize viewing angles. A simple menu system allows user selection of
measurement and display options. Alerts are menu programmable or automatic. Presence of a pulse is
indicated audibly by a user-selectable “beep”.
Separate 24 hour trends for ETCO
, respiration rate, SpO2 and pulse rate are updated every 8 seconds.

Trend “e v ents” and audible alarm status (Audio Off ) are also stored in trend memory.
CO2SMO has a serial port (RS232) for interfacing to external equipment. The monitor can be powered
from the AC Mains or from its rechargeable two-hour battery.
CO2 Principles of Operation
CO2SMO measures carbon dioxide and respiratory rate with a unique solid-state device called a

SpO2 Principles of Operation
SpO2 Principles of Operation
CO2SMO measures oxygen saturation and pulse rate with sensors that contain red and infrared light
sources, called LEDs. Since oxygen satur ated blood absorbs different amounts of light at each
wavelength (red and infrared) as compared to unsaturated blood, the amount of light absorbed by the
blood in each pulse can be used to calculate oxygen saturation.
The light energy from red (660 nm) and infrared (940 nm) LEDs is beamed through a sample cell—a
pulsating vascular bed, the patient’s finger or toe for example. The remaining light energy not absorbed
by the sample cell reaches a light receptor, called a photodiode, on the opposing side of the sensor. The
data received at the photodiode is sent back to the monitor where it is split into its red and infrared
components, digitized, processed by a microprocessor chip, and finally displayed as a numerical value
for oxygen saturation and a plethysmogram.
CO2SMO is calibrated to dis play “functional” saturation. This differs from the “fractional” saturation
value displayed by most co-oximeters
HbO
Functional Saturation =
HbO
= Fractional Hemoglobin
2
COHb = Carboxyhemoglobin
METHb = Methemoglobin
100 - (COHb + METHb)
2
Functional saturation represents the amount of oxyhemoglobin as a percentage of the hemoglobin that
can be oxygenated. Dysfunctiona l hemoglobins (COHb and METHb) are not included in the
measurement of functional saturation.
Pulse Rate is calculated by measuring th e time interv al between the peaks of the in frared ligh t wa vefor m.
The inverse of this measurement is displayed as pulse rate.
CO2SMO must be used in conjunction with SuperBright™ saturatio n sensors. An INCOMP SpO2 PROBE
message indicates a non-SuperBright™ Sensor is in use.

Cautions
•The CO
SMO is not intended to be used as a primary diagnostic apnea monitor and/or recording
2
device.
•Inspect the SpO
sensor site often for adequate circulation - at least once every fo ur hour s. When
2
applying sensors take note of the patient’s physiological condition. For example, burn patients
may exhibit more sensitivity to heat and pressure and therefore additional consideration such as
more frequent site checks may be appropriate.
•Data Validity: As with all pulse oximeters, inaccu rate SpO
and Pulse Rate values can be caused
2
by any of the following:
• Incorrect application or use of a sensor
• Significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobin; carboxyhemoglobin or methemoglobin
• Significant levels of indocyanine green, methylene blue, or other intravascular dyes
• Exposure to excessive illumination such as surgical lamp s—especially ones with a xenon
light source, or direct sunlight
•Data Validity: The Pulse Oximeter should not be used as a substitute for an ECG monitor. The
oximeter’s Pulse Rate display reflects the pulsatile flow found at the p atien t extr emity co nnected
to the sensor. This rate can be affected by many factors and may occasionally be “frozen.”
•Do NOT attach an SpO
sensor distal to a blood pressure cuff. Valid data CANNOT be processed

This section explains how to select an airway adapter based on the patient to be monitored, connect the
airway adapter to the CAPNOSTAT CO
to calibrate the airway adapter and sensor.
Airway Adapter Selection
Select an airway adapter based on the patient and monitoring situation.
•Adult Airway Adapter (Catalog No. 7007)
For patients with Endotracheal Tube diameters greater than 4.0 mm.
•Single Patient Use Adult Airway Adapter (Catalog No. 6063)
For single patient use with Endotracheal Tube diameters greater than 4.0 mm.
•Single Patient Use Adult Airway Adapter with Mouthpiece (Catalog No. 6421)
For single patient use for spot checking CO
•Neonatal Airway Adapter (Catalog No. 7053)
For patients with Endotracheal Tube diameters less than or equal to 4.0 mm.
•Single Patient Use Neonatal Airway Adapter (Cat. No. 6312)
For monitoring intubated patients with an ET tube size of 4.0 or smaller.

Adult Airway Adapter
The Adult Airway Adapter (Catalog No. 7007) should be used when monitoring patients with
Endotracheal Tube diameters greater than 4.0 mm. Alternatively, the Single Patient Use Adult Airway
Adapter (Catalog No. 6063) may be used. See “Single Patient Use Adult Airway Adapter” on page 19.
1.Verify the windows are clean and dry. Clean or replace the adapter if necessary.
2.Snap the airway adapter into the CAPNOSTAT CO
Align the arrow on the bottom of the airway adapter with the arrow on the bottom of the
CAPNOSTAT C O
3.If necessary, perform an adapter calibration. Otherwise, skip this step.
Adapter Calibration needs to be performed each time you switch airway adapter types—for
example; if you switch from using an Adult to a Neonatal adapter , b ut not if you switch from an
Adult adapter to another Adult adapter. Adapter Calibration should also be performed if the
monitor displays

NOTE
•For optimal results, do NOT place the airway adapter between the ET tube and the elbow, as this
may allow patient secretions to block the adapter windows.
•Position the Airway Adapter with its windows in a vertical and NOT a horizontal position: This
helps keep patient secretions from “pooling” on the windows. If pooling does occur, the airway
adapter may be removed from the circuit, rinsed with water and reinserted into the circuit.
•To prevent “rain-out” and moisture from draining into the Airway Adapter, do NOT place the
Airway Adapter in a gravity dependent position.
5.Check that the connections ha ve been made correctly by verifying a proper CO
on the monitor display.
6.The sensor cable should face away from the patient.
