Intended Use

The Disposable Manual Resuscitator (DMR) is a bag-valve-mask device with the capability of delivering supplemental oxygen. During artificial ventilation, the resuscitator can be operated from ambient air or provide oxygen-enriched air by extending the oxygen accumulator and connecting supply tubing to a metered oxygen source. The Easy Cap detector, when connected between an endotracheal tube and a breathing device, detects approximate ranges of end-tidal CO2 by color comparison in patients weighing more than 15 kg (33 lbs.). The detector may be used during patient transport or in any location where intubations are performed. It may be used for up to two hours. The Easy Cap detector assists verification of tube placement during endotracheal or nasotracheal intubation. It may be used on intubated patients to detect approximate ranges of end-tidal CO2 when clinically significant. The Pedi-Cap detector detects approximate ranges of end-tidal CO2 by color comparison. It is intended for use during endotracheal or nasotracheal intubation to assist verification of tube placement. It is also intended for use on intubated patients where measuring approximate ranges of end-tidal CO2 when clinically significant and other more precise methods are not feasible or available, i.e., during cardiac arrest or respiratory insufficiency. The Pedi-Cap detector connects to an endotracheal tube and a breathing device.

Device Story

DMR/CO2 Combo Kit combines a bag-valve-mask manual resuscitator with a colorimetric end-tidal CO2 (EtCO2) detector. Resuscitator delivers ambient or oxygen-enriched air via mask or endotracheal tube. EtCO2 detector connects between endotracheal tube and breathing circuit; utilizes chemical color-change indicator to provide visual estimation of CO2 ranges. Used by clinicians in clinical settings or patient transport to verify tube placement and monitor ventilation status. Provides immediate visual feedback to clinicians; assists in confirming correct airway placement and assessing patient respiratory status during emergencies like cardiac arrest. Single-patient, disposable use; limited to two-hour duration.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; device relies on the established safety and effectiveness of the individual predicate components.

Technological Characteristics

Kit consists of a bag-valve-mask resuscitator and colorimetric CO2 detectors. Detectors use chemical color-change indicators for CO2 sensing. Non-sterile, single-patient use, disposable. No electronic components or software.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring manual ventilation and/or end-tidal CO2 monitoring. Easy Cap: patients >15 kg (33 lbs). Pedi-Cap: patients 1-15 kg (2.2-33 lbs). Used for verification of endotracheal/nasotracheal tube placement and monitoring CO2 ranges during transport, cardiac arrest, or respiratory insufficiency.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A manual emergency ventilator is a device, usually incorporating a bag and valve, intended to provide emergency respiratory support by means of a face mask or a tube inserted into a patient's airway.

The detector may be used during patient transport or in any location where intubations are performed. It may be used for up to two hours. The Easy Cap detector assists verification of tube placement during endotracheal or nasotracheal intubation. It may be used on intubated patients to detect approximate ranges of end-tidal CO2 when clinically significant. Nellcor Puritan Bennett Pedi-Cap Pediatric End-Tidal CO2 Detector detects approximate ranges of end-tidal CO2 by color comparison in patients weighing 1 to 15 kg (2.2 to 33 lbs.). It is intended for use during endotracheal or nasotracheal intubation to assist verification of tube placement. It is also intended for use on intubated patients where measuring approximate ranges of end-tidal CO2 may be clinically significant and other more precise methods are not feasible or available, i.e., during cardiac arrest or respiratory insufficiency. The Pedi-Cap detector connects to an endotracheal tube and a breathing device. It may be used during patient transport or in any location where intubations are performed. It is a non-sterile, disposable, single use end-tidal CO2 detector which may be used for up to two hours. ## 5.
