Oridion CO₂ Breath Sampling Technology

Oridion develops breath sampling interfaces, which bring the superior Microstream® measuring technology to all patient types in all hospital and emergency transport environments. The FilterLine® family of CO₂ breath sampling lines includes unique elements for:

• Accurate sampling from oral or nasal breathers
• Accurate sampling in high humidity environments
• Accurate sampling even with the smallest of breath samples from infants and neonates
• Accurate sampling (with minimal dilution of the CO₂ waveform) during O₂ delivery

Oridion provides a total CO₂ sampling solution for most types of sidestream monitors. This expanded line of CO₂ breath sampling interfaces allows other sidestream monitors to benefit from the improved sampling technology:

• Omnistream™ products are for non-Microstream sidestream monitors. Click here for more information.
• Surestream™ products are for Welch Allyn Atlas™ and Propaq® monitors. Click here for more information.

Features and Benefits

For all Microstream CO₂ sampling products

• The 0.2 micron anti-bacterial filter prevents internal contamination of the CO₂ module and protects the patient and device from cross-contamination
• Built-in water trap designed with a hydrophobic filter prevents moisture from entering the monitor while maintaining laminar flow and excellent waveforms
• Superior moisture handling with Nafion® tubing combats humidity by allowing water vapor to escape
• An array of specialty sampling lines meets every clinical need; for all patient types, for all environments
  • Longer term monitoring
  • High humidity environments
  • Upper airway management during endoscopy procedures

CO₂ sampling solutions for non-intubated patients

• Patented Uni-junction™ design assures effective oral and nasal sampling even at low tidal volumes (Smart products)
• Unique patented O₂ delivery system enables
  • Minimum dilution of CO₂ waveform during O₂ delivery
  • Effective oxygen therapy, while reducing the O₂ drying effect on sensitive mucus membranes

CO₂ sampling solutions for intubated patients

• Airway adapters perform in any position
• Unique 2-port channel design prevents clogging of FilterLine from moisture and secretions
• Universal airway adapter for connections to both 15 mm and 22 mm endotracheal or tracheostomy tubes, ventilator circuits, closed suction systems, and other devices (for adult and pediatric patients)
