US-based medical device company Respiratory Motion has secured the CE Mark for ExSpiron to facilitate a faster detection of life threatening respiratory depression.
ExSpiron is a respiratory volume monitoring system which issues an early warning triggered by a fluctuation in respiratory status which is considered 15-30 minutes faster than the conventional measures.
Respiratory Motion CEO Jenny Freeman said: "Clinicians around the world rely on minute ventilation (MV) to make decisions on the respiratory status of patients on mechanical ventilators."
The system includes a range of features such asa clear, intuitive touch screen graphical user interface (GUI) which clearly displays real-time waveforms, trends and numeric data.

The device includes other features including a patient cable; a self-contained battery which runs for more than two hours; an IV pole mount; electronic health record (EHR) integration options; nurse call interface and a Philips VueLink / IntelliBridge.
Metropolitan Anesthesia Consultants co-founder Tillmann Hein said: "By showing each breath that is taken on a Minute Ventilation monitor, clinicians can immediately assess a patient’s work of breathing, and identify at-risk patients and provide early detection of low minute ventilation.
"This can enable my staff to adjust opioid dosing and ensure optimal pain management."
