Oximetry & Capnography in Tanzania
Available Oximetry & Capnography Models

In critical care and beyond, understanding a patient's respiratory and circulatory status is paramount. Oximetry and Capnography are two vital diagnostic technologies that provide real-time, non-invasive insights into these crucial physiological parameters.

Oximetry, specifically pulse oximetry, measures the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin in arterial blood (SpO2) and the pulse rate. It works by passing red and infrared light through a translucent part of the body, typically a fingertip, earlobe, or toe. The device analyzes the differential absorption of these light wavelengths by oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin to calculate the percentage of hemoglobin carrying oxygen.

Capnography, on the other hand, measures the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in exhaled breath over time. This waveform, known as a capnogram, provides detailed information about ventilation, perfusion, and metabolism. It primarily displays end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2), which is the concentration of CO2 at the very end of an exhalation and is a reliable indicator of alveolar CO2 levels.

Together, these technologies offer a comprehensive picture of a patient's cardiopulmonary function, enabling healthcare professionals to quickly assess and manage conditions related to oxygenation and ventilation.

Effective patient monitoring is crucial across a wide spectrum of healthcare settings in Tanzania. Oximetry and capnography technologies are essential tools for assessing a patient's oxygenation and ventilation status, playing a vital role in diagnosing, managing, and treating a variety of conditions. From large urban referral centers to smaller rural health posts, the demand for these vital signs monitoring capabilities is significant.

Ensuring the seamless integration of your new oximetry and capnography equipment in Tanzania is our top priority. We've streamlined the installation process to be efficient, thorough, and minimize disruption to your clinical operations. Our dedicated technical team will guide you through each stage, from initial site preparation to final calibration, guaranteeing optimal performance and reliability.

Prior to installation, our team will collaborate with your facility to assess the optimal placement for your devices. This includes verifying power supply stability, network connectivity requirements (if applicable for data logging or integration with EMR systems), and ensuring adequate space and environmental conditions are met as per the equipment manufacturer's specifications. We understand the unique infrastructure considerations within Tanzania and are equipped to address them proactively.

Upon delivery, our certified technicians will unbox and carefully inspect all components to ensure they are in perfect working order. The installation itself involves precise physical setup, connection to necessary medical gases (for capnography), and integration with compatible patient monitoring systems. We adhere to all safety protocols and best practices throughout the installation.

Following the physical installation, a comprehensive calibration process will be conducted. This is a critical step to guarantee the accuracy and reliability of your oximetry and capnography readings. Our technicians will perform all necessary functional tests and zero calibrations, utilizing calibrated reference gases and equipment to ensure precise measurements. We will provide your staff with hands-on training during this phase, covering basic operation, troubleshooting, and routine maintenance to empower your team and maximize the lifespan and effectiveness of your investment.

The cost of oximetry and capnography equipment in Tanzania can vary significantly based on factors such as brand, model, features, and whether the unit is new or refurbished. For essential pulse oximeters, you might find basic, portable units for personal or small clinic use starting from approximately Tsh 300,000 to Tsh 1,500,000 for new devices. More advanced standalone capnography monitors, often found in critical care or anaesthesia settings, will command a higher price. New, professional-grade machines with advanced monitoring capabilities can range from Tsh 5,000,000 to Tsh 25,000,000 or more. Integrated patient monitoring systems that include both oximetry and capnography will typically fall within the higher end of this spectrum.

Refurbished units offer a more budget-friendly alternative. You can expect to find reliable refurbished pulse oximeters for as low as Tsh 150,000 to Tsh 750,000. Similarly, refurbished capnography monitors and integrated systems can offer substantial savings, potentially ranging from Tsh 2,000,000 to Tsh 12,000,000, depending on the age, condition, and warranty provided with the unit. It's crucial to inquire about the warranty and service support available for both new and refurbished equipment to ensure long-term usability and value.
