How fast is temperature compensation in modern vaporizers?
|
6 min/Deg C
|
|
What happens when a vaporizer is tilted?
|
Liquid anesthetic may spill down the bypass tract -> increased agent to pt when used
|
|
What should be done if the vaporizer is briefly tilted < 45 deg?
|
Nothing
|
|
What should be done if the vaporizer is tilted > 45 deg?
|
Flush w/ 10LPM O2 w/ vaporizer in maximum setting for 5 minutes
|
|
What should be done if the vaporizer is on its side for any period of time?
|
Empty liquid and flush w/ 100% O2 for 20 mins
|
|
How does rebreathing effect inspired agent concentrations?
|
At high FGF, inspired is appox = to set, at low FGF, significant rebreathing -> increased concentration of agent
|
|
How does minute ventilation relate to rebreathing?
|
Increasing minute ventilation -> increased rebreathing if FGF is not increased
|
|
What is the vapor pressure of Des in an ohmeda vaporizer?
|
1550 torr
|
|
How hot does Des in an ohmeda vaporizer get heated to?
|
39 C
|
|
Describe the ohmeda Tec 6 Des vaporizer
|
Not a flow over - Des is heated, and flows past a resistor to merge with dilutent flow. Electronic control valve.
