Background and Identification

Capnomac Ultima is an oxygen flow and ventilation monitoring device. This device can be applied for a variety of patients - young children to older generations. This device Capnomac Ultima is produced by a manufacturing company called GE Healthcare. The headquarters of GE Healthcare is located in Chicago, Illinois, founded in 1994. GE Healthcare has around 5,000 employees, and the company runs at the centre of an ecosystem for precise healthcare aiding the productivity and outcomes for patients.

While this device, Capnomac Ultima, can monitor patients’ oxygen flow and ventilation, it has certain power requirements; 100/115/220/240 VAC; VAC; 50/60 Hz; 100w. This device can measure the data quite accurate while it can be applied to a big age range.

The device is 13.4 inches depth (34.04 cm) x 8.4 inches height (21.34 cm) x 13 inches width (33.02cm).
