Technical validation of the EMMA capnometer under hyperbaric conditions

CONCLUSIONS: This study validated EMMA capnometer function to 281 kPa in the hyperbaric environment. The device over-read CO₂ measurements at pressures >141 kPa, however there was a linear relationship between expected and measured CO₂. The EMMA capnometer may be clinically useful for monitoring expired CO₂ in patients undergoing hyperbaric oxygen treatment.PMID:37365127 | DOI:10.28920/dhm53.2.100-110
