摘要:
The specification describes anesthesia systems with an integrated, extendable clinical center and clinician/anesthesia office that accommodates for physical separation of clinical and clerical functions. The disclosed anesthesia systems allow for a portion of the system to be brought closer to the patient such that clinical controls can be accessed while tending to the patient airway, without compromising office space available to the clinician or crowding the patient area.
摘要:
A process for operating a respirator and/or an anesthesia device with measurement of a set percent Peak Expiratory Flow (% PEF) (15) or percent Peak Inspiratory Flow (% PIF) and regulation of the measured % PEF (15) or % PIF to the set % PEF (15) or % PIF. Furthermore, a suitable respirator and/or anesthesia device are provided.

A system is described herein for evacuating gas as it is leaking from a patient's airway. The system comprises a gas evacuation flowpath configured for collecting a gas flow escaping from the patient when inserted into the patient's airway. A vacuum source is connected to the gas evacuation flowpath. Devices that may be employed as part of the system and a method for evacuating gas from a patient are also described.

A facemask to abolish “difficult mask ventilation” in unconscious patients by viewing the wind pipe while delivering oxygen and incorporating channels on the facemask is described. The facemask makes it possible to oxygenate/ventilate an unconscious patient while securing a definitive airway by endotracheal intubation. The anesthetic facemask incorporates channels through which an ‘airway-slider’ fitted with a camera is inserted inside the patient's mouth, when the patient is unconscious. The airway-slider simplifies maneuvering the endotracheal tube into the patient's windpipe thus achieving a definitive clear airway with the use of just one device as opposed to the practice of needing multiple devices for the same in current anesthetic practice.

The anesthesia systems have an integrated, extendable clinical center and clinician/anesthesia office that accommodates for a physical separation of clinical and clerical functions. The anesthesia system includes an alarm reversion system which enables a predefined alarm limit to be set and then to be automatically reverted back to an alarm limit existing just before the predefined alarm limit was set.
摘要:
A medical vaporizer includes a liquid drug reservoir configured to receive and hold a liquid drug. A low power graphical display is configured to intermittently receive power. The low power graphical display is operable to visually present information and maintain the visual presentation of information in the absence of power. A controller is configured to intermittently receive power and upon receiving power the controller operates to determine a status of a medical vaporizer. The controller operates the low power graphical display to present the status of the medical vaporizer as visually presented information.
摘要:
A ventilator or anesthesia device and method create a reference state and record a measured value as a reference value. A gas delivery unit is activated after the ending of the reference state to build up pressure in a breathing circuit. A comparison measured value is determined with a pressure or flow sensor. A deviation of the measured value from the reference value in relation to a predefined or predefinable expected value is monitored based on the comparison. A warning message is issued depending on a result of the comparison. A drop in pressure in the breathing circuit is caused after the recording of the comparison measured value and a further comparison measured value is recorded following the drop in pressure. A deviation of the further comparison measured value from the reference value leads to a further warning message when the deviation does not correspond to the further expected value.
摘要:
A system for collecting an anaesthetic agent, having at least one anaesthetic gas scavenging system (AGSS) for receiving exhaust gas from a plurality of sources, the exhaust gas including the anaesthetic agent to be collected, each AGSS comprising at least one power source for providing suction of the exhaust gas from the plurality of sources under negative pressure, and a central collection system for receiving the exhaust gas. The central collection system comprises a disinfection module for disinfecting the exhaust gases and outputting a disinfected exhaust gas and at least one collector for receiving the disinfected exhaust gas, wherein the at least one collector is configured to adsorb the anaesthetic agent from the exhaust gas. The central collection system may be configured to received the exhaust gases from the at least one AGSS, with the central collection system being located downstream of the at least one AGSS.
摘要:
Apparatus for the respirating of patients, with a line system for the flow-through of respiratory gas with connections for the patient, for the supply of components of the gas and for the discharge of components of the gas, characterized in that the line system is built up of a first and a second, substantially plate-shaped, part, with each an inner surface and an outer surface, which are intended to be placed with their inner surfaces against each other, while in the inner surface of at least one of the parts a canal with a longitudinal side that is open toward the inner surface is provided, such that during placement thereon of the inner surface of the other part the open side of the canal is covered and a flow-through pathway is formed through which respiratory- or anaesthetic gas can be fed.
摘要:
A system for measuring of arterial and venous blood constituent concentration based first on measuring cardiac blood flow balance parameter between the right chamber of the heart and the left chamber of the heart, which includes a sensor device for measuring one of blood pressure and blood flow rate and blood constituent concentration of a patient so as to generate an arterial pulse signal. A processing unit is responsive to the arterial pulse signal for generating full arterial pulse plethysmography waveforms, arterio-venous pulse plethysmography waveforms, and balance parameters. A computational device that is responsive to plethysmography waveforms generating a plurality of state space linear transfer functions by applying system identification between plethysmography waveforms at various wavelengths representing a plurality of models of the blood constituent concentration, including oxygen, carbon dioxide, hemoglobin, and glucose, and displaying related useful information.
