Safety Information, Warnings and Cautions
CAUTION: EMMA is to be operated by, or under the supervision of, qualified personnel only. Read the manual,
accessories directions for use, all precautionary information, and specifications before use.
Safety Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: EMMA should only be used for the purpose and in the manner described in this manual.
WARNING: EMMA is intended for use by authorized health care professionals only.
WARNING: EMMA must not be used with flammable anesthetic agents.
WARNING: If EMMA is used with a respirator or with harmful gases such as N2O, always perform a pre-use tightness
check of the patient circuit.
WARNING: EMMA Airway Adapters shall not be reused. Reuse of single use Adapters can cause cross infection.
WARNING: Do not use the EMMA Adult/Pediatric Airway Adapter with infants as the Adapter adds 6 ml dead space to
the patient circuit.
WARNING: Do not use the EMMA Infant Airway Adapter with adults/pediatrics as this may cause excessive flow
resistance.
Performance Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: EMMA is intended only as an adjunct in patient assessment. It shall be used in conjunction with the
assessment of clinical signs and symptoms.
WARNING: Use only EMMA Airway Adapters manufactured by Masimo.
WARNING: No modification of the EMMA probe or the EMMA Airway Adapters is allowed.
WARNING: Light transmission can be affected by secretions and moisture pooling on the EMMA Airway Adapter XTP™
windows. When using heated humidifiers special care should be paid to position the Airway Adapter in a vertical
position and to change Airway Adapter if necessary.

www.masimo.com 10 Masimo
WARNING: Do not use EMMA with nebulized medications as this may affect the light transmission of the EMMA
Airway Adapter windows.
WARNING: Audible alarm of any monitor may not be heard in some loud environments, such as when sirens are in use
and the care provider is more distant from the alarm source. Alarm volume should be tested with the extremes of your
noise environment to confirm ability or limitations to hear an alarm in all circumstances of the environment.
WARNING: Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could
result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should be observed to
verify that they are operating properly.
WARNING: Make sure that EMMA is used in the electromagnetic environment specified in this manual.
WARNING: Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external
antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the EMMA. Otherwise, degradation of the
performance of the EMMA could result.
Note: A trained medical professional must determine the proper EMMA Airway Adapter model for each patient
application. No hardware or software configuration changes result from the EMMA Airway Adapter model selected.
Note: The alarm limits will be reset to default values after EMMA powers off.
Cleaning and Service Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: Properly use and dispose of batteries or they may leak or explode.
WARNING: Lithium batteries may present a fire or chemical burn hazard if mistreated. Do not disassemble, heat
above 100°C (212°F) or incinerate. Dispose of used cells promptly. Keep away from children.
WARNING: Use only Alkaline batteries or Energizer Ultimate Lithium L92 batteries. Use of other Lithium batteries
may present a risk of fire or explosion.
WARNING: Replace batteries immediately when the Battery Status Indicator starts blinking. Remaining battery time
depends on battery type and other circumstances and cannot be reliably predicted.
CAUTION: Remove alkaline batteries when the EMMA will not be in use for more than 30 days to avoid damage to the
device due to batteries that may leak.

www.masimo.com 11 Masimo
CAUTION: Replace both batteries at the same time to avoid mixing fully and partially charged batteries. These
actions may cause the batteries to leak; resulting in possible damage to the device.
CAUTION: Do not immerse EMMA in any liquid.
CAUTION: Do not apply excessive pressure on the IR-windows.
CAUTION: Never saturate EMMA completely with any disinfection solution.
CAUTION: Only perform maintenance procedures specifically described in the manual; otherwise, return EMMA for
servicing. Improper maintenance may result in damage to the internal parts. Damage to internal parts may result in
no or inaccurate readings.
CAUTION: Do not clean EMMA with any chemical other than those specified in Maintenance and Cleaning of this
manual. These substances may affect the device’s materials and damage internal parts.
CAUTION: The EMMA and EMMA Airway Adapters are non-sterile devices. Do not submerge EMMA or EMMA Airway
Adapters in any cleaning solution or attempt to sterilize by autoclave, irradiation, steam, gas, ethylene oxide or any
other method. This will seriously damage the device.
CAUTION: Do not use undiluted bleach (5% - 5.25% sodium hypochlorite) or any cleaning solution other than those
recommended in Maintenance and Cleaning of this manual. Permanent damage to EMMA may occur if other
unspecified solutions are used.
CAUTION: Never submerge EMMA in water or any other liquid solution this may cause permanent damage to the
EMMA.
Note: Before cleaning EMMA, remove the batteries and make sure the battery cover is re-attached correctly.
Note: The presence of ambient air (0% CO2) in the EMMA Airway Adapter is of crucial importance for a successful
Zeroing. Special care should be taken to avoid breathing near the EMMA Airway Adapter before or during the Zeroing
procedure.

Chapter 1: Technology Overview
The following chapter contains general descriptions about parameters, measurements, and the technology used in
EMMA.
Principles of Operation
The measurement of CO2 in the breathing gas mixture is based on the fact that different gas components absorb
infrared light at specific wavelengths. A beam of invisible infrared light is directed through the respiratory gas flow in
the EMMA Airway Adapter. As the beam passes through the EMMA Airway Adapter, some of the light is absorbed by
the gas mixture. The amount of absorbed light is measured by a miniaturized two channel spectrometer positioned to
receive the infrared light beam.
The spectrometer incorporates a filter wheel fitted with two different optical "color" filters. The wavelength ranges of
these filters are chosen such that one filters out colors where carbon dioxide has very strong absorption and the other
filters out colors where carbon dioxide has no absorption.
The spectrometer also incorporates an infrared detector that converts the light beam to an electrical signal. The
electrical signal is converted to a digital value that is fed to a microprocessor. The ratio of the light measured through
the two filters is then used by the microprocessor to calculate the carbon dioxide concentration in the breathing gas
mixture.

EMMA Airway Adapter
Respiratory gas measurements are, as described in the previous section, obtained by continuously measuring the
infrared light absorption through the EMMA Airway Adapter. The EMMA Airway Adapter is fitted with optical XTP™
windows that are transparent to light in the wavelength ranges of interest. The EMMA Airway Adapter may, for
example, be inserted between the endotracheal tube and the resuscitation bag or between the resuscitation bag and
the patient mask.
The EMMA Airway Adapter is available in two models: Adult/Pediatric (Figure 3a) and Infant (Figure 3b). EMMA
operates to specification with either EMMA Airway Adapter model when used with its appropriate patient population.
•The EMMA Airway Adapters are intended for single patient use. They are disposable and shall not be
re-used. Reuse of single patient use Adapters can cause cross infection.
•EMMA Airway Adapters shall be disposed of in accordance with local regulations for bio hazardous waste.

application. No hardware or software configuration changes result from the EMMA Airway Adapter model selected.
