BTPS - Body Temperature, ambient Pressure, gas Saturated with water vapor. Describes the
conditions in which a gas measurement was taken.
BTPS Compensation - Mathematical correction for the environmental differences between the
measurement site (i.e. the measurement bench) and “deep lung” CO
2
.
Cannula - A device, or tubing, used to deliver oxygen to a patient orally or nasally. Some types
are divided to deliver oxygen through one tube, and aspirate CO
2
through another
tube.
Capnogram - a graphical display of carbon dioxide concentration over time.
Capnography Bench - Another name for the CO
2
sensor, the device that detects and measures
the level of carbon dioxide in a gas sample.
CCap - Welch Allyn OEM Technologies’s Capnography Bench for the LC101 Module.
CCITT/CRC Code - The program code used to derive a cyclical redundancy checksum table
used to verify error-free data transmission.
CISPR 11 - Limits and Methods of Measurement of Electromagnetic Disturbance Characteristics
of Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) Radio Frequency Equipment (Class B).
CO
2
- Carbon dioxide, a byproduct of cellular metabolism; the majority of which is eliminated by
the lungs.
CO
2
Sensor - The device used to detect and measure the level of carbon dioxide concentration
in a gas sample.
CO
2
Waveform - The graphical representation of carbon dioxide concentration over time.
Configuration Command - Communication protocol command used by the host system to
temporarily modify specific Module settings for measurement criteria. The commands
usually include specific data within the command structure.
Configuration Response - The Module’s reply to a configuration command from the host
system. It also represents the Module’s receipt of the command.
CRC - Cyclic Redundancy Check- An error-detecting code generated from a polynomial that can
be added to a data record or message.
CS114 - Conductive Electromagnetic Energy Test Standard (MIL-STD-461D).
DCOM - Welch Allyn OEM Technologies’ DOS-based communication software for the LC101
Module.
Desflurane - Anesthetic gas that affects infrared light absorption.
