GE Datex-Ohmeda E-CO Module
The GE Datex-Ohmeda E-CO Module is a compact, high-precision capnography and gas analysis module engineered to provide continuous measurement of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and respiratory parameters.
The GE Datex-Ohmeda E-CO Module is a compact, high-precision capnography and gas analysis module engineered to provide continuous measurement of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and respiratory parameters. Built for integration with GE patient monitoring and anesthesia systems, the E-CO module ensures accurate and reliable respiratory monitoring across diverse clinical environments, including operating rooms, ICUs, and emergency departments. Using infrared absorption technology, the module delivers precise end-tidal CO₂ (EtCO₂) readings and respiratory rate measurements in real time. Its fast response time (<400 ms) enables clinicians to detect changes in ventilation instantly, supporting better decision-making and patient safety. The user-friendly interface, configurable alarms, and durable compact design make the E-CO module a dependable choice for continuous airway monitoring in both anesthesia and critical care applications.
