End Tidal (Et) Control** helps maintain patient's end-tidal agent and oxygen settings. Regardless of changes in patient's haemodynamic and metabolic status, agent and oxygen levels are automatically adjusted to targeted end-tidal levels.

Vigilant
EtC automates the delivery of anaesthetic agent, fresh gas mix and total fl ow to deliver consistent set anaesthetic agent levels and maintain set EtO ₂% concentration. Et Control maintained end-tidal concentration within 10% of the set target for 98% of the total steady state time.¹

Simple
In clinical tests³, a majority of clinicians reported that Et Control is easier to use compared with the conventional practice of using fresh gas flow and vaporizer settings. A recent study observed that even for longer cases, Et Control required 52% less keystrokes per case than manual control.¹

Efficient
Et Control can help reduce anaesthetic and costs throughout the case. A recent study showed that for cases of the same duration, the Et Control group used on average 40 - 55% less volatile anaesthetics than the manual control group.¹

Helping in decreasing greenhouse emissions
By helping clinicians reduce the waste of anaesthetic agent and fresh gas flow, Et Control may have a positive impact in the environment. A recent publication indicated that the use of Et Control was associated with a 44% decrease in the rate of greenhouse gas emissions compared with manual control.²

In conventional fresh gas flow mode, ecoFLOW information may help prevent wasteful over-delivery of anaesthetic agent and reduce the risk of hypoxic gas mixtures during low and minimum flow anaesthesia.

Workflow features:

Configurable quick picks for fast adjustments of FGF settings
Configurable combination quick picks for fast adjustments to (O₂% and FGF)

Tunnelling Alarms guide the clinician to address alarms with a single touchPause gas flow to suspend FGF and agent delivery to help prevent OR pollution during intentional breathing circuit disconnection (e.g. intubation, endotracheal tube suctioning, positioning the patient).
