5.4 M-Port
The SPUR II comes either with or without M-Port.
Warning
Use the M-Port only for one of the two; EtCO
as one can negatively impact the other.
The M-Port should not be used for side-stream EtCO
ventilated with less than 400 ml Tidal Volume.
When the M-port is not in use for either drug administration or connected to an
EtCO - measuring device the M-port must be closed by the cap to avoid excessive
2
leakage from the patient housing.
Do not attach oxygen supply tubing to the M-port.
To ensure proper delivery of the entire dosage, the M-port must be flushed after each use.
If application of M-Port is required, do not use filter, CO
accessories between the patient inspiratory port and the mask or ET tube unless
you use the optional adapter with syringe port to bypass filter/CO
sories to deliver medication.
Measuring EtCO
2
For measuring of side stream EtCO ; connect the gas-sampling line for the EtCO
2
measuring device to the M-Port of SPUR II. Lock the gas sampling line connector by
turning it 1/4 turn clockwise.
Applying medication
Carefully observe patient response to the administered medication.
Administration of volumes of 1 ml fluid or above through the M-Port is comparable
with administration directly into an endotracheal tube.
The M-Port has been tested with epinephrine, lidocaine and atropine.

caution
An increase in the variation of the dosage of medication actually delivered must be
expected when administering volumes below 1 ml fluid and without subsequent
flushing with appropriate fluid.
Consult your medical director for proper dosing guidelines.
Change to injection directly in the tube if unusually high flow resistance is felt
through the M-Port.
Syringe with Luer cone
Remove the M-Port cap. Mount the syringe in the M-Port and lock it by turning it ¼
turn clockwise. Inject drug into the M-Port. Ventilate 5-10 times quickly in succession.
Remove the empty syringe, and replace the M-Port cap.
Syringe with needle
Insert the needle into the middle of the M-Port cap. Inject drug into the M-Port.
Ventilate 5-10 times quickly in succession. Remove the empty syringe.
5.5 Demand valve connector 
The Adult and Paediatric resuscitator are available as demand valve versions
equipped with an inlet valve that connects to a demand valve. In order to attach the
demand valve pull the oxygen reservoir out of the inlet valve. The demand valve
can afterwards be inserted into the inlet valve.
