## Indications for use
The Capnostream 20 combined capnograph/pulse oximeter monitor is intended to provide professionally trained health care providers the continuous, non invasive measurement and monitoring of carbon dioxide concentration of the expired and inspired breath and respiration rate, and for the continuous non-invasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO 2) and pulse rate. It is intended for use with neonatal, pediatric and adult patients in hospitals, hospital type facilities, intra hospital transport and home environments. The Capnostream 20 monitor provides the clinician with an integrated pulmonary index (IPI). The IPI is based on four parameters provided by the monitor: end tidal carbon dioxide, respiration rate, oxygen saturation and pulse rate. The IPI is a single index of an adult or pediatric patient's ventilatory status displayed on a scale of 1 - 10, where 10 indicates optimal pulmonary status. IPI monitoring displays a single value that represents the patient's pulmonary parameters and alerts clinicians to changes in the patient's pulmonary status. The IPI is an adjunct to, and is not intended to replace, vital sign monitoring.
