Masimo’s Portable Carbon Dioxide Monitor Gets FDA Clearance

Masimo has been granted 510(k) clearance from the FDA for its Radius PCG, a palm-sized, portable real-time capnograph device that monitors carbon dioxide in respiratory gases. 

Designed for use on Masimo’s Root patient monitoring and connectivity platform, the device uses Bluetooth to deliver low perfusion pulse oximetry and continuous temperature measurements.

The Radius PCG displays carbon dioxide respiration-rate measurements and continuous waveforms within 15 seconds.
