Aims

To ensure all EMRS team members are aware of the operation of the EMMA Emergency Capnometer and the SP300 Finger Tip Pulse Oximeter.

Application

EMRS team members SAS airwing Paramedics

Background

The EMMA Emergency Capnometer and SP300 Finger Tip Pulse Oximeter are carried in the Monitor Pack and can be used for back-up monitoring in the situation of MRX failure or where small and simple monitoring could be beneficial i.e. RTC entrapment on a HEMS mission.

Prior to use remember to remove the cotton tape from battery compartment. This act as a circuit breaker in an attempt to improve battery life. The finger pulse oximeter is very simple to operate and only has one button. The device is switched on with a single press of this button. The oximeter defaults to screen 1, shown below and displays SpO2, pulse rate and SPO2 waveform. Further button presses will scroll through the display options show below, enabling you to adjust the screen orientation to

To begin using attach the Airway Adaptor to the EMMA monitor. It can only be fitted one way, with the bigger end of the tube to the bottom of the monitor. Next press the power button in the bottom left hand corner. The monitor will perform a short self-test and will display a ETCO2 value of 0 and the respiratory display will show “- -“. The monitor will automatically switch off 15 seconds after the Airway Adaptor has been removed from the device or w

ETCO2 values are displayed after one breath and have a continually updated breath average. RR is displayed after two breaths and the averaged value is updated every breath.

Adjusting Alarm Limits

To adjust the high ETCO2 limit press and hold the Alarm Silence button until the RR display shows “Hi” and the ETCO2 display shows the current high ETCO2 alarm limit. Release the button. To adjust the alarm limit: press the Alarm Silence button (▲) to

increase, or the Power On button (▼) to decrease the value. It is possible to switch off the high ETCO2 alarm by adjusting the limit above 9.9 kPa. EMMA Monitor will indicate this setting by showing "- -" on the ETCO2 display during the adjustment routine.

If no button has been pressed for a short period of time, EMMA Monitor will automatically resume normal operation.

To adjust the low ETCO2 press and hold the Power On button until the RR display shows “Lo” and the ETCO2 display shows the current low ETCO2 alarm limit. Release the button. To adjust the alarm limit: press the Alarm Silence button (▲) to increase, or the Power On button (▼) to decrease the value. It is possible to switch off the low ETCO2 alarm by

adjusting the limit down to 0. EMMA Monitor will indicate this setting by showing "- -" on the ETCO2 display during the adjustment routine.

High altitude measurements are affected by pressure broadening. To compensate for this effect, add offset to displayed ETCO2 value according to the following table based on altitude and range of ETCO2 being displayed by the EMMA Emergency Capnometer:
