End-tidal CO2 monitor module
Request QuoteItem # NFC
Category: Physiological monitoring
CapnoScan® provides real-time capnography and sidestream sampling. To obtain end-tidal CO2 measurements, CapnoScan requires the animal be intubated and ventilated.

“I just wanted to touch base and follow up on the PhysioSuite Capnograph and the temperature probe. It has really worked out for us and the temp probe was a great addition. Both have been able to import directly into Powerlab which is a great feature!”

FAQs
Yes, there are multiple options to record and manage data. The system includes one analog output (for a single parameter), or you may export all parameters digitally via mini-USB.
Yes, the PhysioSuite can be used alongside your stereotaxic frame.
The normal ETCO2 range in animals is 30 to 45mmHg or 4.0 to 5.5%. Sensor placement is an important factor in determining sidestream ETCO2. Place the sensor on the expiratory line, as close to the animal’s airway as possible.
Yes, the controller can be sterilized with hydrogen peroxide gas (or VHP). You may use the same sterilization protocol used for laptop computers and other electronics in your facility. Be sure to open any caps or ports to allow the gas to reach inner mechanisms and tubing, if applicable.
