The Compact Airway modules are double width plug-in modules. M-C, M-CO, M-COV, M-COVX, M-CAiO, M-CAiOV, M-CAiOVX and MCAiOVX/SERVICE are designed for use with the S/5 monitors. Later in this manual modules may be refered to without the S/5 system nomenclature for simplicity. Please also see theTechnical Reference Manual of the S/5 monitor for system specific information e.g. related documentation, conventions used, symbols on equipment, safety precautions, system description, system installation, interfacing, functional check and planned maintenance. The Compact Airway modules provide airway and respiratory measurements. Letters in the module name stand for: M = plug-in module, C = CO2 and N2O, O = patient O2, V = patient spirometry, X = gas exchange, A = anesthetic agents, and i = agent identification
About M-CAiOVX/SERVICE module The M-CAiOVX/SERVICE module is meant for service purposes only. It can be used as a loan module if the module in the hospital should be sent to the factory for repair. The specifications that apply to the M-CAiOVX apply also to the M-CAiOVX/SERVICE module. Module differences: the colour of the front mask is green, the front panel has a “SERVICE” text and there are no front panel keys equipped. Table 1 Modules

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
2.1 Measurement principle 2.1.1 CO2, N2O, and agent measurement TPX is a side stream gas analyzer, measuring real time concentrations of CO2, N2O and anesthetic agents (Halothane, Enflurane, Isoflurane, Desflurane, and Sevoflurane). Temp sensor Sample chamber
Thermopile detectors

Figure 1
TPX sensor principle
Anesthetic agents or mixtures of two anesthetic agents are automatically identified and concentrations of the identified agents are measured. TPX also detects mixtures of more than two agents and issues an alarm. TPX is a nondispersive infrared analyzer, measuring absorption of the gas sample at seven infrared wavelengths, which are selected using optical narrow band filters. The infrared radiation detectors are thermopiles. Concentrations of CO2 and N2O are calculated from absorption measured at 3-5 µm.

Datex-Ohmeda S/5 monitors
Figure 2
Absorbance of N2O and CO2
Identification of anesthetic agents and calculation of their concentrations is performed by measuring absorptions at five wavelengths in the 8-9 µm band and solving the concentrations from a set of five equations.
Figure 3
Infrared absorbance of AAs
The measuring accuracy is achieved utilizing numerous software compensations. The compensation parameters are determined individually for each TPX during the factory calibration.

2.1.2 O2 measurement The differential oxygen measuring unit uses the paramagnetic principle in a pneumatic bridge configuration. The signal picked up with a differential pressure transducer is generated in a measuring cell with a strong magnetic field that is switched on and off at a frequency of 165 Hz. The output signal is a DC voltage proportional to the O2 concentration difference between the two gases to be measured.

2.1.3 Patient spirometry In mechanical ventilation breaths are delivered to the patient by a ventilator with a proper tidal volume (TV), respiration rate (RR), and inspiration / expiration ratio in time (I:E) determined by the settings of the ventilator. The Patient Spirometry monitors patient ventilation. The following parameters are displayed: − − − −

PEEP, Ppeak, Pmean, and Pplat are measured by pressure transducer on the PVX board. Atmospheric pressure is used as a reference in measurement. The pressure measurement is made from the airway part that is closest to the patient between patient circuit and intubation tube. PEEPi=intrinsic PEEP, PEEPtot-PEEPe Static pressure measurement maneuvres are automatically identified based on a increased zero flow period at the end of the inspiration or expiration. Static Compliance is calculated if Static PEEP and Static Pplat measurements were made within a 2 minute period.
Airway flow − − − − −
Real time flow waveform (V') Compliance (Compl) Airway resistance (Raw) Pressure volume loop Flow volume loop
The measurement is based on measuring the kinetic gas pressure and is performed using the Pitot effect. A pressure transducer is used to measure the Pitot pressure. The pressure signal obtained is linearized and corrected according to the density of the gas. Speed of flow is calculated from these pressure values and the TV value is then integrated. The MV value is calculated and averaged using TV and RR (respiratory rate) values. Compliance and airway resistance Compliance is calculated for each breath from the equation Compl =
TVexp Pplat − PEEPi − PEEPe
Formula 2
Compliance describes how large a pressure difference is needed to deliver a certain amount of gas to the patient. The airway resistance, Raw, is calculated using an equation, that describes the kinetics of the gas flow between the lungs and the D-lite. The equation states that the pressure at the D-lite can at any moment of the breath be approximated using the equation P(t) = Raw x V’(t) + V(t)/Compl + PEEPe + PEEPi
Formula 3
where P(t), V’(t) and V(t) are the pressure, flow and volume measured at the D-lite at a time t, Raw is the airway resistance, Compl is the compliance and PEEPe+PEEPi is the total positive end expiratory pressure (PEEPtot).

D-lite Patient Spirometry uses specific sensors called D-lite+/D-lite and Pedi-lite+/Pedi-lite flow sensors. Different types of sensors are available: adult sensor for measuring adults and pediatric sensor for children. Both are available as reusable and disposable versions. D-lite and Pedi-lite adapters are designed to measure kinetic pressure by two-sided Pitot tube. Velocity is calculated from pressure difference according to Bernoulli's equation. Flow is then determined using the calculated velocity.

F =v×A, where: F = flow (l/min), v = velocity (m/s), A = cross area (m2), dP = pressure difference (cmH2O), ρ = density (kg/m3) Finally the volume information is obtained by integrating the flow signal.
2.1.4 Gas exchange measurement The gas exchange measurement uses the D-lite flow sensor and the gas sampler. The basic data which is needed to obtain O2 consumption and CO2 production are volumes and concentrations. Concentrations have been corrected for delay and deformation during the transport of the gas sample in a sidestream gas measurement sensor. To obtain the amount of O2 consumed in ml/min, the amount which is exhaled is subtracted from the amount that is inhaled. To obtain the amount of CO2 producted in ml/min, the amount which is inhaled is subtracted from the amount that is exhaled. These amounts can be obtained by multiplying each measured volume piece (dv) by the corresponding gas concentration: VO2 = ò fO 2dv − ò fO 2dv insp
Formula 5
exp
and VCO2 = ò fCO 2dv − ò fCO 2dv exp
Formula 6
insp
Using inspiratory and expiratory minute volumes MVi and MVe and volume-weighted inspiratory concentrations fi and fe these equations can be rewritten as: VO2 = fiO2 × MVi - feO2 × MVe [ml/min]
Formula 7
11 Document No. 8001009-5
Datex-Ohmeda S/5 monitors VCO2 = feCO2 × MVe - fiCO2 × MVi [ml/min]
Formula 8
To obtain results which are less sensitive to errors in volume measurements, the so-called Haldane transformation is used. This means taking advantage of the fact that the patient is not consuming nor producing nitrogen: the amount of nitrogen inhaled is equal to the amount exhaled fiN2 × MVi=feN2×MVe. VO2 and VCO2 can then be written as: VO2 = (fiO2 - fHald × feO2)MVi [ml/min]
Formula 9
VCO2 = (fHald × feCO2 - fiCO2)MVi [ml/min]
Formula 10
with fHald = (1-fiCO2 – fiO2 – fiN2O - fiAne1 – fiAne2) / (1-feCO2 – feO2 – feN2O - feAne1 – feAne2) EE=(5.5 × VCO2) + (1.76 × VO2) + (1.99 × Un) [kcal/day]

Gas sampling system TPX measuring unit OM measuring unit PVX measuring unit CPU board OM board PVX board
2.2.1 Gas sampling system The sampling system takes care of drawing a gas sample into the analyzers at a fixed rate. The gas sampling system samples the measured air to the module, and removes water and impurities from it. A sampling line is connected to the water trap. The pump draws gas through the sampling line to gas measuring units. After the measurements, the gas is exhausted from sample gas out connector. The M-COVX and M-CAiOVX modules have a different gas sampling system compared to the other modules. A number of flow restrictors have been changed to create a bigger pressure difference with ambient pressure in the gas sensors. The sample flow is however about the same (200 ml/min). A larger pressure difference makes the deformations of the gas concentration curves less sensitive to high variations of the airway pressures thus meeting also the accuracy requirements of gas exchange for these applications.

Compact Airway modules
D-fendTM The sample is drawn through a sampling line. Then gas enters the monitor through the water trap, where it is divided into two flows, a main flow and a side flow. The main flow goes into the analyzers. This flow is separated from the patient side by a hydrophobic filter. The side flow creates a slight subatmospheric pressure within the D-fend water trap which causes fluid removed by the hydrophobic filter to collect in the bottle.
Zero valve and absorber The main flow passes through a magnetic valve before proceeding to the analyzers. This valve is activated to establish the zero points for the TPX and OM units. When the valve is activated, room air is drawn through the absorber into the internal system and the gas sensors. Paralyme is used as an absorbent. Figure 5
Absorber
NafionTM tubes 1) A nafion tube is used between the water trap and the zero valve to balance the sample gas humidity with that of ambient air. The tube will prevent errors caused by the effect of water vapor on gas partial pressure when humid gases are measured after calibration with dry gases. Another nafion tube is used between the absorper and the pneumatic unit to prevent humidity caused by absorb of CO2.
Gas analyzers After the zero valve and nafion tube the gas passes through TPX and OM units. The oxygen sensor has two inputs. One input accepts the main flow and the other draws in room air for reference. Both gas flows exit from a single port.
Sample flow differential pressure transducer The sample flow differential pressure transducer measures pressure drop across OM inlet restrictor and calculates sample flow from the pressure difference.
Working pressure transducer The working pressure transducer measures absolute working pressure between the TPX unit and OM unit. It is used for messages: ‘sample line blocked’, ‘check D-fend’, ‘replace D-fend’ and ‘check sample gas outlet’.

Pneumatic unit The pneumatic unit contains zeroing valve, occlusion valve and tubing connections. There is a series of restrictors and chambers forming a pneumatic filter to prevent pressure oscillations from the pump to reach the measuring units. The occlusion valve connection to room air includes a dust filter and the zero valve connection to room air includes an absorber.
Connection block The connection block contains sample gas outlet connector and OM unit reference gas inlet. The inlet is equipped with a dust filter.
Occlusion valve The valve is activated when the sampling line gets occluded. The main flow is then diverted to the side flow of the D-fend water trap to faster remove the occlusion.
Sampling pump and damping chamber The gas sampling pump is a membrane pump that is run by a brushless DC-motor. Sample flow is measured with a differential pressure transducer across a known restriction. The motor is automatically controlled to maintain a constant flow, even when the D-fend water trap ages and starts to get occluded. It also enables use of sample tubes with varying lengths and diameters. The damping chamber is used to even out the pulsating flow and silence the exhaust flow. NOTE: In no occasion is the flow reversed towards patient. CO2 absorber Nafion tube
