Dual Mask provides continual monitoring of carbon dioxide exhaled from both mouth and nose whilst delivering supplementary oxygen. Pre-fitted oxygen and sampling lines makes set-up quick and easy.
Dual Masks and Nasal Cannulas simultaneously deliver supplementary oxygen and enable EtCO2 monitoring when using a sidestream or Microstream™ capnometer.
Guidelines1-7 require EtCO2 monitoring of all moderately or deeply sedated patients, for patients being recovered from anesthesia or moderate or deep sedation, and during CPR to monitor ET tube placement, efficacy of chest compressions and early indication of return of spontaneous circulation.
End-Tidal CO2 Monitoring & O2 Delivery
Delivering accuracy
with every breath
Dual Mask has been proven to be the most efficient in sampling
end tidal CO2 in an independent comparative study8 in a simulated patient.
