Mechanical Specifications - Maxtec FLOCAP Manual De Funcionamiento E Instrucciones De Uso

• If the color remains purple, or a color similar to purple, the patient may
not have a patent airway or the endotracheal tube may not be positioned
correctly. This requires immediate attention. Employ your institution's
protocol to verify proper tube placement and adequate gas exchange.
• Continue to monitor the color of the CO
entire time the device is in use.
DO NOT exceed 24 hours of use.
• During the course of ventilation, if the FLOCAP returns to and
remains purple or beige colored, this indicates insufficient exhaled
CO . This requires immediate attention.

4. Not intended to be a quantitative indicator. Follow your institution's
guidelines for breath frequency and tidal volume during resuscitation
and for avoiding auto-PEEP during resuscitation. At the end of
exhalation, the flow indicator's momentum will cause it to spin briefly
after exhalation has ceased.
3.0 COLOR & FLOW INDICATOR INTERPRETATION
Purple (0%) .................................................................No carbon dioxide detected
Beige (1-2%) ...................................................Exposed to CO
Yellow (5%) ............................................................ Exposed to 5% or greater CO
Spinning * .........................................................................................Patient is exhaling
Not Spinning ......................................................................Exhalation flow < 3 LPM
* At the end of exhalation, the flow indicator's momentum will cause it to
spin briefly after exhalation has ceased.
