The Spacelabs Healthcare Multigas Module is a sidestream analyzer that simultaneously monitors gas concentrations and alerts clinical personnel when the concentration of anesthetic agents, oxygen (O22), carbon dioxide (CO2), or nitrous oxide (N2O) moves outside the defined limits. The anesthetic agent being administered is automatically identified.

Oxygen
FiO2 and ETCO2 are displayed after one breath and have a continuously updated breath average. ET will typically decrease below nominal value (ETnom) when respiration rate (RR) exceeds the RR threshold (RRth) according to the following formulas:
C2O: ET=ETnom × 70/RR for RRth >70
N2O, O2, DES, ENF, ISO, SEV: ET=ETnom × 50⁄RR for RRth >50
HAL: ET=ETnom × 35⁄RR for RRth >35
Measured at I/E ratio 1:1 using breath simulator according to EN ISO 80601-2-55 fig. 201.101.
