Cigarette Consumption

The BabyCO meter provides a simple screening test for cigarette

consumption for use in anti-smoking clinics and all smoking

cessation programs.

Measurement of carboxyhaemoglobin has been well validated as an

indirect measure of cigarette consumption and is widely used in

smoking cessation programs.

Typical values for carboxyhaemoglobin and expired CO in smokers

together with the alarm light status, are given below:

CO(ppm) Cigarette consumption Indicator

0 – 6 Non smoker Green

7 – 10 Light smoker Amber

11 - 20 Heavy smoker Red

20+ Heavy smoker Flashing red with

alarm

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... 23 24
