Capnocheck® USA launch


Smiths Medical Introduces Capnocheck® Capnometer for Veterinary Use

Waukesha, WI – Smiths Medical PM, Inc. is excited to introduce the launch of the Capnocheck® Capnometer for veterinary use in the USA. This pocket-sized, fully quantitative capnometer monitors carbon dioxide concentrations and respiratory rate in one easy-to-use device. The Capnocheck® Capnometer uses miniaturized mainstream ETCO2 technology providing unmatched accuracy in a light-weight, cost-effective capnometer.

Unlike other capnometers, the Capnocheck® Capnometer does not need to be calibrated. Powered by 2 AAA batteries, the device has multiple applications including intubation verification and resuscitation monitoring, routine airway management, ventilator weaning as well as spot checking of intubated patients.

The Capnocheck® Capnometer is reusable with single-patient disposable adapters. The unit is lightweight with bright, easy to read LEDs and can be purchased with optional alarms. The device’s simple operation and accuracy make it an invaluable tool in all areas of veterinary clinical practice.
