The Tidal Wave incorporates rugged, solid-state, mainstream CAPNOSTAT® sensor technology and is designed to monitor CO2 in virtually any veterinary clinical setting. A hand-held monitor with full graphics capability. 

Features:

• Y-site probe included 
• Offering accurate, reliable monitoring in a convenient, portable package.
• Ideal for use in emergency and transport settings, and other alternate site monitoring situations.
• Hand-held mainstream & sidestream capnograph
• 30 minute on-screen graphic trend available for assessing outcome of therapeutic intervention
• Visual and Audible "No Respiration" alert provides for a higher level of patient safety during transport and other alternate site monitoring situations
• Display is visible in any lighting condition - from total darkness to bright sunlight
• User replaceable disposable and rechargeable battery packs eliminate the need to wait while batteries are charging.
• Easy user CO2 calibration
• Available with SpO2

Mainstream vs. Sidestream:

• Mainstream:  Plug into circuit and get a sample from infrared light to read CO2 lines.
• Sidestream:  Get a sample line out of the circuit and run through the machine.

Overview of Differences between Mainstream and
Sidestream Capnography

A capnometer, by definition is either diverting (i.e., sidestream) or non-diverting (i.e., mainstream). A diverting capnometer transports a portion of a patient’s respired gases from the sampling site, through a sampling tube, to the sensor whereas a non-diverting capnometer does not transport gas away from
the sampling site [6,7]. In other words, one can view the difference between mainstream (non-diverting) capnography and sidestream (diverting) capnography as clinically measuring carbon dioxide at the sample site versus measuring carbon dioxide in the monitor distant from the sample site.
