The CO Check Baby + has been specifically designed as a low cost screening device for smoking cessation during pregnancy.
A single breath will instantly display results on the large screen in CO part per million (PPM) or % Carboxyhaemoglobin (%COHb) – the amount of carbon monoxide attached to your red blood cells represented as a percentage. Users are guided to hold their breath with a count down timer and then encouraged to exhale with an on-screen blow icon to assist testing compliance.
CO Check Baby + will also provide the level of foetal carboxyhaemoglobin. There is a clear correlation between the exhaled carbon monoxide on the pregnant mothers breath and that of the % carboxyhaemoglobin in the foetal blood supply (%FCOHb).
The CO Check Baby + is also capable of detecting environmental CO levels. When the Environmental Capture is enabled, background CO levels are taken into account when carrying out a breath test. This ensures that any possible environmental exposure can be clearly identified. Environmental levels are displayed in PPM.

Is the monitor CE Marked?
Yes
Is it IEC 60601 Electrical Safety Standard Compliant?
Yes
Is the useful life of the device 2 year or 5 years?
The device has a 5 year warranty except for the electrochemical fuel cell which has an expected life of two years and is therefore excluded from the warranty. The electrochemical fuel cell works in a similar way to a battery and therefore the more you use it the shorter it’s life. The chemical is used up as it combines with the CO in the exhaled breath, which produces a current that is proportional to the CO concentration. In normal use the cell will last at least 2 years but if it is used regularly with high levels of CO, or exposed to abnormally high levels of CO, it may need to be replaced sooner.
