GENERIC NAME: ANESTHESIA BREATHING CIRCUIT
INTENDED USE: An assembly of devices designed to conduct medical gases from the fresh gas supply outlet of an anesthesia unit/workstation to the patient.
SPECIFICATION
A plain ventilator circuit is a set of tubing and accessories that connect a mechanical ventilator to a patient, allowing for the delivery of respiratory support. The specifications for a plain ventilator circuit typically include the following components and characteristics:
- Inspiratory Limb: Tubing that delivers air/oxygen from the ventilator to the patient.
- Expiratory Limb: Tubing that carries exhaled gases from the patient back to the ventilator.
- Y-Connector: Connects the inspiratory and expiratory limbs to the patient interface.
- Patient Interface: Includes a mask, endotracheal tube, or tracheostomy tube.
- Tubing: Typically made of medical-grade PVC or silicone, which is flexible, durable, and resistant to kinking.
- Connectors: Made of rigid plastic, often polycarbonate, to ensure secure connections.
- Tubing Diameter: Common internal diameters are 15 mm for paediatric circuits and 22 mm for adult circuits & 10mm for neonatal circuit.
- Tubing Length: Typically, between 1.2 to 1.8 meters, but can vary depending on specific requirements.
- Resistance to Flow: Low resistance to ensure minimal work of breathing for the patient.
- Dead Space: Minimized to prevent CO2 rebreathing.
- Compliance: Low compliance to ensure accurate delivery of tidal volumes.
- No leakage & Lower kinking risk
- Individual pack/ Non-sterile/ 3-year Shelf life from date of manufacturing
- Compatibility: Ensure compatibility with the specific ventilator model being used.
- Patient Comfort: Features like soft tubing and ergonomic connectors to enhance patient comfort.
- Anti-kink Design: Tubing designed to resist kinking and ensure continuous airflow.
- The corrugated tubes have a good flexibility and bending resistance, not meander, not broken, that mechanical ventilation in the process smooth gas supply.
- Made of high-quality medical grade plastic with 22M-22F straight connector.
- Corrugated, Flexible and Lightweight Double tubing 1.6 meter .
