The CO2 capnograph waveform amplitude
is insufficient for breaths to be detected.
Possible causes include: the ventilator is
not functioning properly, there is a

Displayed when ETCO2 > 60 mmHg
This can be caused by the patient not being
adequately ventilated due to airway
problems, ventilation tubing problems,
ventilator settings, bagging frequency
and/or by a problem/malfunction with the
ventilation system including the setup, the
valves, the CO2 absorber or other
components. Refer to CO2 monitoring
educational material for all causes and
cures.
Identify the problem(s) and correct.
Displayed when ETCO2 < 15 mmHg
This can be caused by the patient being
over ventilated due to ventilator settings,
bagging frequency and/or by a
problem/malfunction with the ventilation
system including the setup, the valves, the
CO2 absorber or other components. Refer
