Capnometer

摘要

A capnometer includes an airway adaptor for letting a respiratory gas pass therethrough, a light source for holding the airway adaptor and irradiating with infrared radiations the respiratory gas passing through the airway adaptor, a detecting portion having an infrared radiation detector for detecting the infrared radiations that have passed through the respiratory gas, and a monitor body for measuring the concentration of respiratory carbon dioxide gas by receiving a signal from the detecting portion, wherein an angle is defined between the channel of the airway adaptor and a display surface of the monitor body. <IMAGE>
