Healthcare device provider Covidien will provide healthcare solutions for continuous patient monitoring at the American Society of Anesthesiologists' annual meeting. 
Covidien clinicians will discuss new research on respiration rate and how non-invasive pulse oximetry devices and technologies can increase patient safety through early detection and treatment of respiratory complications.
The company will also debut its expanded patient-monitoring portfolio and capnography devices.
Topics to be covered by Covidien include:
• Putting capnography and pulse oximetry with respiration rate to practice
• The accuracy of continuous noninvasive respiratory rate derived from pulse oximetry in the postanesthesia care unit
• The accuracy of continuous noninvasive respiratory rate derived from pulse oximetry in obese subjects
• Detection of opioid-induced respiratory depression
