Expiratory limb ventilation during anesthesia machine failure.
987 October 2013 To the Editor: I read with interest the case report by Seif and Olympio,1 who described the successful use of expiratory limb ventilation during a ventilatory emergency when removal of the absorbent canister from a GE Aestiva/5 anesthesia machine (GE Healthcare, Mickleton, NJ) resulted in a large leak in the circle breathing system. The authors note that with their arrangement ...
متن کاملExpiratory limb ventilation during unique failure of the anesthesia machine breathing circuit.
751 March 2013 T anesthesia machine is the most integral piece of equipment used by anesthesia providers. When semiclosed circle systems are used, unidirectional valves become integral components that direct carbon dioxide containing gas across the absorbent and along the inspiratory limb, mixing with fresh gas as it flows into the patient. Unfortunately, human error is known to be the most com...
متن کاملA Novel Method for Retrograde Ventilation Applied on the Expiratory Limb of Anesthesia Machines
Methods: At baseline 100% oxygen, 32 mmHg end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2), and 1% end tidal isoflurane, retrograde SIMVD ventilation was initiated at the same minute ventilation with 100% oxygen. Changes in inspired oxygen (FiO2), isoflurane (FiIso), and EtCO2 were measured and then a second set of data was obtained after doubling the ventilation rate. After return to baseline, another data se...
متن کاملOxygen consumption with mechanical ventilation in a field anesthesia machine.
Field anesthesia machines (FAM) with gas-powered ventilators have been developed for remote locations that may not have a central supply of oxygen. These ventilators may rapidly deplete oxygen cylinders, especially in patients with decreased pulmonary compliance. Our goal in this study was to determine oxygen consumption rates with a contemporary FAM in models of high (HC) and low (LC) pulmonar...
متن کاملPositive expiratory pressure plateau: improved gas exchange during mechanical ventilation.
IT IS "WELL KNOWN that the pattern of mechanical ventilation can affect the efficiency of pulmonary gas exchange. Despite this, the optimum ventilatory wave form has yet to be defined. In the past, most research has pertained to the pattern of inspiration T M and relatively little attention has been directed to the expiratory phase of ventilation. The concept of a maintained expiratory pressure...
