Introduction
The Novametrix CO
SMO ETCO
2
/SpO2 Monitor, Mo del 7100, is a lightweight, easy to use, combin ation
2
capnograph and pulse oximeter monitor designed for use in a variety of clinical settings. It provides reliable measurement, display and alerts for, end tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO functional pulsatile oxygen saturation (SpO
) and pulse rate. The included sampling sy stem allows CO
2
), respiration rate,
2
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.
2
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
CAPNOSTAT CO airway adapter is placed in the patient’s airway circuit—typically between the ventilator elbow and the patient wye (See “CAPNOSTAT CO “U” shaped sensor and then beamed thro ugh the wind o ws of the airw ay ad apter to a detector in the oth er leg of the sensor. Carbon dioxide, flowing in the airway adapter as a result of respiration, absorbs some of this light energy. The monitor relates the amount of detected energy to the amount of CO sample cell (the airway adapter). This results in a capnogram display and numerical values for CO respiration rate. accurate digital filters and adaptive thresholds to cover a wide range of monitoring situations including, rebreathing, neonatal respirat ory rates and CO operator having to change monitor settings.
Respiration is calculated by measuring the time interval between detected peaks of the CO The inverse of this measurement is displayed as respiratory rate. Certain rebreathing circuits, or the presence of artifact such as cardiogen ic oscillation s, may cause fluctuations as if they were breaths—this condition affects only the numerical displays, the Capnogram display continues to provide an accur ate picture of the CO enabled to make the instrument more selective in its differentiation of waveforms caused by breathing and those introduced by artifact. As a result, when the editor is in use, the monitor will adapt slowly to sudden changes in respiratory rate.

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.

Certain rebreathing circuits, or the presence of artifact such as c ardiogenic oscillations, may cause
CO2SMO’s adaptive digital detection algorit hm to react to non-respirat ory CO
were breaths. This condition may cause the mon itor’ s numerical Respirator y Rate display to sho w values greater than the actual Respiratory Rate. The Capnogram display continues to provide an accurate CO signal.
The Respiratory Rate Editor can be enabled b y the user to add ad ditional adapti ve wa veform duration and amplitude criteria to the detection algorithm. Use of the Respiratory Rate Editor makes the monito r more selective in its differentiation of waveforms caused by breathing and those introduced by artifact. As a result, when the editor is in use, the monitor will adapt slowly to sudden changes in respiratory rate.

1. Select a Y-Strip based on the patient type and intended sensor location. Y-Strips come in two color-coded sizes: 25 mm tapes have green liners, and 20 mm tapes have
blue liners. The size refers to the distance between the holes in the tape

3. Skip this step if using the 25 mm Y-Strip tape. If using the 20 mm Y-Strip tape, carefully remove the sensor’s center strip using a pair of scissors or a sharp blade.
The center strip does not effect sensor operation, it s purpose is to aid putting the sensor into the 25 mm tape and to limit the distance between the sensor heads to no greater than 25 mm.

5. Remove the remaining release liner(s) and apply the sensor/tape to the patient. Ensure that the sensor heads are directly opposite each other through the tissue. This prevents
the sensor from being placed on a site too thick (high arch) for proper operation. Position the sensor so that the tape does not extend over the space between the fingers or toes to
insure there will be no light transmission through this space.
WARNING
Do not wrap the tape around the limb so tightly that circulation is restricted. Inspect the site often for adequate circulation—at least once every four hours.
Care should be exercised to ensure clinically reasonable alert limit settings are selected. Novametrix does not recommend the setting of limit values to such a wide span as to effectively render alert limit feature useless. Once the limit values are properly set, the user should periodically confirm patient status by alternate means and not rely soley on alerts generated when a limit is violated.
6. To maximize sensor life, secure the sensor to the patient with additional tape. Leave slack in the wires between the tape and the sensor.

The monitor then “locks” the vertical scaling of the plethysmogram so that subsequent changes in the magnitude of the pulsatile signal cause the plethysmogram to grow smaller or larger—and provide an indication of changes in pulsatile signal strength relative to the “lock” point.
The “lock” point is indicated on the Signal Bar by dots on either side of the bar. Once locked, stronger or weaker signals will still cause the Signal Bar to grow or shrink, but the dots marking the lock point remain in place. These lock points remain fixed until the user presses determined.

The timer has selectable delay times of 0, 15, 30, or 60 seconds from the monitor’s initial detection of the bad signal, to activation of the alerts.
The Bad Signal Timer feature work s in conjunction with the Display Held Timer and Special Alert Delay . For example:

Overview

CO2SMO provides several alert options.
Alert limits can be adjusted automatically with the Auto Alerts feature or manually from within the menu system.
Limit alerts require user action to be reset; they can also be configured to automatically reset.
Alert limit settings are retained in memory and restored each time the monitor is turned on; the monitor can also be set to power up each time using default settings.
Audible alerts are delayed 10 seconds from the occurrence of a limit alert; the delay can also be eliminated to allow instant activation.
Audible alert volume can be adjusted.
Audible alerts can be temporarily silenced for two minutes.
Audible alerts can be suppressed altog ether via the Audio Off feature. Furthermo re, the Audio Off feature can itself be disabled for use in situations where suppressing audible alerts is undesired.
The Alert Bar stops flashing automatically if the parameter that caused a limit alert retu rns within its limits or, the Alert Bar can instead be set to continue flashing until the user presses the key or, the Alert Bar can be turned off altogether.

value was 45 mmHg, the upper limit would
2
be set to 55 (45 + 10 = 55) and the lower limit would be set to 35 (45 - 10 = 35).

Respiratory Rate Auto Alert Limits

2
Rate data) is displayed on the right half. Data for each parameter is tabulated into six categories. Each category represents a range of possible va lues. For each category, a bar graph is drawn showing the percentage of the total time the para meter was within the category. To the right of the bar graphs are numerical tabulations also showing how long the parameter was within that category.

Trend Data Compression

Data is stored into trend memory every eight seconds.
CO2SMO can display any 12 hour , 8 hour , 2 h our , or 30 minute po rtion of its 24 hour tren d memory. Since
the size of the trend display is a fixed width, the monitor must compress the trend data to fit onto the display—the more data present, the more it must be compressed to fit onto the display. The trend display is approximately 200 pixels (picture-element) wide. Each horizontal pixel (data point) is equivalent to the following times:
1 data point per 8 seconds in a 30 minute trend 1 data point per 32 seconds in a 2 hour trend 1 data point per 128 seconds (approx. 2 minutes) in an 8 hour trend 1 data point per 192 seconds (approx. 3 minutes) in an 12 hour trend
The monitor determines the trend duration and compresses that amount of data to fit the screen—older data to the left, the most recent to the right.
Because of data compression, data at any horizontal pixel may look like a vertical bar. For CO
maximum Inspired CO displayed above the graph represents the maximum ETCO
, the upper extent of the bar represent s the maximum ETCO2 value and the bottom of the bar the
2
value stored during that particular compression period. The ETCO2 valu e

Try different sensor. If problem persists, a hardware error with the monitor most likely exists, or sensor is defective.
The values stored inside the sensor’s EEPROM failed the checksum test. Check that the sensor is properly plugged in. If problem persists, return the sensor to the factory for servicing.
Occurrence of any of the following conditions - sensor is unplugged, over temperature, faulty, incompatible, or calibrator is faulty.
The CO2 sensor has not reached proper operating temperature. A cold sensor may take several minutes to warm up; less time is necessary for a sensor at room temperature. Maximum warm-up time should be five minutes. Wait for sensor to stabilize. If error persists, try a different sensor. Other monitor functions are not affected.
The sensor is unplugged, under temperature, over temperature or temperature is stabilizing. Other monitor functions are not affected.
Usually caused by blockage of the optical path of the sensor, or when the airway adapter is removed. May also be caused b y f ailure to perform adapter calibration to correct for adapter type. Clean airway adapter if necessary, check calibration. Perform adapter calibration, if problem persists, perform zero calibration. Perform another adapter calibration if using another adapter.
