Infinity® MCable™-Mainstream CO₂ : Capnography Designed for Clinical Precision
The Infinity® MCable™-Mainstream CO₂ from Dräger stands out as a benchmark in respiratory monitoring, offering real-time, accurate data on the concentration of both exhaled and inspired carbon dioxide, along with respiratory rate. Using dual-wavelength non-dispersive infrared technology, the device converts absorbed light signals into electrical signals proportional to CO₂ concentration, enabling direct and reliable measurement without external gas sampling, making it ideal for intensive care, anesthesia, or in-hospital transport.
Fully compatible with Dräger’s Infinity Acute Care Systems, the cable allows simultaneous display of ventilatory and hemodynamic parameters on a single monitor, optimizing clinical data visibility for rapid decision-making. It connects easily to the M540 monitor via a dedicated port and adapts to adult and pediatric clinical requirements with reusable or disposable adapters. Its fast rise time of 26 to 39 ms and short data transmission delay ensure immediate response to changes in patient respiratory status. The system is compliant with international standards, including the European Medical Device Directive (MDD 93/42 EEC), and is built to withstand demanding usage conditions with its IP64 protection rating.
User-selectable gas compensation (air, N₂O/O₂, >50% O₂, Heliox) and configurable alarm thresholds allow full adaptation to clinical needs. In addition to technical performance, the Infinity® MCable™-Mainstream CO₂ is ergonomically designed for seamless integration into hospital workflows while maximizing patient comfort, thanks to its low-dead-space, low-resistance adapters.
The cable is powered directly by the monitor, eliminating the need for external power supplies or batteries, making it both autonomous and safe. Reliable, compact, and fully integrated into Dräger’s care systems, it’s a modern solution that meets the current standards for continuous and uninterrupted respiratory monitoring, even under mobile conditions.
