Product Description, Features and Intended Product Description The EMMA® Capnograph is a quantitative mainstream carbon dioxide monitor comprised of a Sensor Body that fits on top of a disposable EMMA Airway Adapter. Intended Use EMMA® Capnograph measures, displays and monitors carbon dioxide partial pressure and respiratory rate during anesthesia, recovery and respiratory care.
Page 11
WARNING: EMMA Airway Adapters shall not be reused. Reuse of single use Adapters can cause cross infection. WARNING: Do not use the EMMA Adult/Pediatric Airway Adapter with infants as the Adapter adds 6 ml dead space to the patient circuit.
Page 12
CAUTION: Remove alkaline batteries when the EMMA will not be in use for more than 30 days to avoid damage to the device due to batteries that may leak.
Page 13
Note: The presence of ambient air (0% CO ) in the EMMA Airway Adapter is of crucial importance for a successful Zeroing. Special care should be taken to avoid breathing near the EMMA Airway Adapter before or during the Zeroing procedure.
Page 14
CAUTION: EMMA Airway Adapters shall be disposed of in accordance with local regulations for bio hazardous waste. Note: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

A beam of invisible infrared light is directed through the respiratory gas flow in the EMMA Airway Adapter. As the beam passes through the EMMA Airway Adapter, some of the light is absorbed by the gas mixture. The amount of absorbed light is measured by a miniaturized two channel spectrometer positioned to receive the infrared light beam.

EMMA Airway Adapter. The EMMA Airway Adapter is fitted with optical XTP™ windows that are transparent to light in the wavelength ranges of interest. The EMMA Airway Adapter may, for example, be inserted between the endotracheal tube and the resuscitation bag or between the resuscitation bag and the patient mask.

Guidance and Manufacturer's Declaration-Electromagnetic Emissions EMMA is expected to be used in a professional environment like intensive care unit, patient room and operating suite except near high frequency electro surgical equipment and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems. EMMA is also intended to be used in emergency medical services as road ambulances.
Page 51
This section constitutes the guidance and Masimo’s declaration regarding electromagnetic immunity for EMMA. Essential performance of EMMA is gas measurement accuracy (see Citation [4]) including gas reading alarm conditions, or generation of technical alarm conditions, when exposed to the following immunity levels.
Page 52
WARNING: Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the EMMA. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of the EMMA could result.

Citations [1] The EMMA Capnograph displays CO in partial pressure units (kPa or mmHg) and compensates the displayed value for the actual barometric pressure. The EtCO value is the max partial CO pressure measured within a breath and the displayed value is: –...
Page 55
CAUTION: Do not immerse EMMA in any liquid. CAUTION: Do not apply excessive pressure on the IR-windows. Note: Before cleaning EMMA, remove the batteries and make sure the battery cover is re-attached correctly. To clean EMMA, follow the instructions below: Remove the Airway Adapter.
Page 56
Airway Adapters The EMMA Airway Adapters are not intended to be cleaned. The EMMA Airway Adapters are intended for single patient use. They are disposable and shall not be re-used. Reuse of single patient use Adapters can cause cross infection.

Page 59
Gas Span Check The EMMA Capnograph does not require any routine calibration. A gas span check is recommended at regular intervals to make sure the measurement is within accuracy levels. The suggested interval for gas span check is once every year.
Page 60
If the unit is reading within the above range then your EMMA Capnograph has been successfully verified. If the unit is not reading within the above range, disconnect the EMMA Airway Adapter from the gas cylinder and perform a Zeroing procedure and then repeat the Gas span check procedure. See Zeroing Procedure on page 56. If verification still fails, contact your local distributor for further instructions.
