BD Alaris 8300
The Alaris 8300 EtCO2 Module, integrated with BD Alaris smart pump technology, enables continuous respiratory monitoring to reduce risks of opioid infusions. End-tidal (EtCO2) functionality pauses a PCA infusion if the patient’s respiratory status falls below hospital-defined limits.
The Alaris Carefusion 8300 EtCO2 Module Uses Oridion Module patented micro stream Non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) Spectroscopy to continuously measure the amount of CO2 during every breath, the amount of CO2 present at the end of the exhalation (EtCO2) and during inhalation (FiCO2), and the respiratory rate.
The EtCO2 Module is a sidestream capnograph.The Disposables deliver a sample of the inhaled and exhaled gasses from the ventilator disposable or directly from the patient into the monitor for CO2 measurement moisture and patient secretions are extracted from the sample by the micro stream inline filter while maintaining the shape of the CO2 waveform. The Alaris 8300 EtCO2 Module releases a gas sample through micro sample cell (15 Microliters).
- Reduces risks of opioid infusions.
- Customizable profiles add flexibility across all patient-care areas.
- Utilizes sampling lines that cut the need for moving parts, external sensors or routine calibration.
- Provides patient EtCO2 sampling products to meet abroad spectrum of sampling needs available with or without oxygen delivery.

How often should I service my pump? While some manufacturers recommendations vary on service intervals, we recommend to have your device serviced annually to ensure the accuracy and safety of the device.
What should I use to clean the pump with? We recommend to use Isopropol alcohol and a Magic Eraser for removal of sticker residue and stains. Dissolve it and Goo Gone work well also. For decontamination we recommend using Cavicide wipes. Do not ever immerse your equipment in water!!! Always spray on a towel or cloth then wipe down.
