A nasal oxygen cannula with carbon-dioxide-sampling is a flexible tube fitted with nasal prongs to deliver oxygen while simultaneously allowing exhaled gas to be sampled for CO₂ levels. Clinically, it supports respiratory monitoring in patients requiring supplemental oxygen, such as those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or post-operative recovery needs.
These devices are typically single-use and regulated as medical devices rather than drugs. They’re often supplied as disposable items, requiring adherence to manufacturing standards for sterility and performance in oxygen delivery and gas sampling.
