The FLOCAP is a simple, disposable, single-use CO2 and flow indication device designed for placement between a breathing device and a patient’s endotracheal tube or mask for visualization of exhaled CO2 and to give a visual indication of the presence of expiratory flow.
The CO2 indicator will assist the caregiver in verifying proper ET tube placement. A lack of color change may indicate improper intubation. Exhaled gas passes through the device and indicates a range of end-tidal CO2. The flow indicator allows the caregiver to visually detect if the patient is still exhaling.
