?:definition
  • Respiration monitors designed for continuously measuring and displaying information on the temperature at some point of the ventilation artificial airway (e.g., inspiratory limb, Y-piece). These monitors are hard-wired at the bedside. These monitors consist of a central unit with electronic circuits that can process data from temperature sensors attached to the artificial airways and a display. They typically also include a transducer, a cable, alarms (audible and/or visual) and temperature sensor. Artificial airway temperature monitors provide real-time information on the temperature of gases supplied to patients under assisted ventilation, especially when a heated humidifier is incorporated in the inspiratory line of a patient\'s breathing circuit.
