Saturated Capnogram
5.3 Monitoring
The EMMA Capnograph is fitted with a graphic OLED-display that shows the ETCO
2
Value, the
Respiratory Rate Value and a CO
2
waveform (the capnogram).
5.3.1 ETCO
2
The EMMA Capnograph is available in versions displaying ETCO
2
either in mmHg (0 - 99 mmHg) or kPa
(0.0 - 9.9 kPa). ETCO
2
values are displayed after one breath and the averaged value is updated every
breath.
5.3.2 Respiratory Rate
Respiratory Rate (RR) is displayed as breaths per minute (3 - 150 bpm). RR is displayed after two
breaths and the value is updated every breath.
5.2.3 Capnogram
The Capnogram is displayed as a filled graph with a 14.4 sec horizontal sweep and a fixed 0-53
mmHg/0-7 kPa scale.
Figure 9. EMMA Capnograph display
If the CO
2
level reaches or exceeds 53 mmHg/7 kPa, a horizontal dashed line will be displayed to
indicate that the capnogram is saturated.
