ElintMAX is not indicated for use in intensive care or critical care settings, or during the immediate post-anesthesia recovery period.
ElintMAX is a non-invasive monitor that graphically displays changes in lung volume over time and presents estimated values for:
• Tidal Volume
• Respiratory Rate
• Minute Ventilation
• Inspiration-to-Expiration Time Ratio (I:E Ratio)
• Rapid Shallow Breathing Index (RSBI)
ElintMAX is not intended for apnea detection. The device is intended to supplement, not replace, clinical judgment or other diagnostic tools. Its outputs are to be used as supportive inputs in conjunction with other clinical assessments to evaluate respiratory status.
