GE Healthcare D-Fend Pro Water Traps for CARESCAPE Respiratory Modules D-fend Pro water traps are designed to protect the gas measurement system from moisture, humidity and contaminants, which can harm the gas module and affect measurement accuracy. Features • Protects the gas measurement unit and enables seamless operation of CARESCAPE Respiratory Modules • Streamlined gas flow channels enable fast response of the gas measurement to provide reliable readings D-fend Pro water traps are indicated for use with CARESCAPE* Respiratory Modules monitoring respiratory and ventilatory parameters in anesthesia and critical care applications.. • Application-specific water traps to meet the needs of various care areas Protection against humidity and bacteria In airway gas monitoring with CARESCAPE Respiratory Modules, sampled gases are transported from the patient into the gas bench for analysis. However, sometimes there is moisture and contaminants in the sampled gas, and these may cause harm to the gas analysis unit and affect the system’s performance. To remove the moisture and contaminants the sampled gas passes through a D-fend Pro water trap. The key component of D-fend Pro water traps is a special polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane. This membrane prevents water or bacteria passing the water trap simultaneously, allowing sampled gas to pass through the membrane to the gas analysis unit. Condensed water is collected in a water container, which can be emptied. Application-specific water separation Because the conditions between care areas may vary, GE Healthcare offers two application-specific versions of D-fend Pro water traps to help you meet the needs of different care areas. The dark steel blue D-fend Pro water trap is designed to be used in anesthesia care area. In anesthesia this water trap should be replaced every two months, or when the patient monitor so indicates. During the water trap’s operating life the water container can be emptied as often as necessary. The green D-fend Pro+ water trap is designed to be used in the critical care environment, where high humidity and secretions may be present. To maintain the seamless operation and accurate measurement this water trap is recommended to be replaced every 24 hours and after each patient. Also with the D-fend Pro+ water trap, the container can be emptied during its operating life.
