The Basic Structure And Introduction Of ICU Anesthesia Machine

As an Anesthesia Gas Machine Manufacturer, let us introduce the basic components of the ICU Anesthesia Machine.

The anesthetic is generated by the volatile tank to generate anesthesia vapor, and the required amount of anesthetic vapor is controlled to enter the breathing circuit and sent to the patient along with the mixed gas.

It mainly consists of a gas supply device, an evaporator, a breathing circuit, a carbon dioxide absorption device, an anesthesia ventilator, and an anesthetic exhaust gas removal system.

Gas supply device

This part mainly consists of air source, pressure gauge and pressure reducing valve, flow meter and proportioning system.

2. Evaporator

An evaporator is a device that converts a liquid volatile anesthetic into steam and enters an anesthetic loop in a certain amount.

3. Breathing circuit

The most commonly used clinically is the circulation loop system, which is the CO2 absorption system. It can be divided into semi-closed and closed. The semi-closed type is that the exhaled breath is partially inhaled after being absorbed by the CO2 absorbent; the closed type is that the exhaled breath is absorbed by the CO2 absorbent and all are repeatedly inhaled.

4. Carbon dioxide absorption device

The absorbents are soda lime and calcium lime, as well as slaked lime, which is rare. Because of the difference in the indicator, the color change is different after absorbing CO2.

5. Anesthesia ventilator

The breathing pattern of the ICU Anesthesia Machine is simpler than that of the ventilator in the recovery room.

6. Exhaust gas removal system

As the name suggests, it is to treat the exhaust gas to prevent contamination of the operating room.
