What color is O2 cylinder?!?
|
green
|
|
What color is N2O cylinder?
|
blue
|
|
What color is CO2 cylinder?
|
grey
|
|
What color is air cylinder?
|
yellow
|
|
What color is He cylinder?
|
orange
|
|
why store tank upright?
|
decrease chance of condensation accumulating on the side of the cylinder (weakest pt) and causing corrosion
|
|
Are O2 and N2O flammable?
|
no, but they support combustion so keep away from flammable agents
|
|
How does the DOT test cylinders?
|
Hydrostatic testing q 5 yrs
|
|
How does hydrostatic testing work?
|
1. cylinder emptied and filled with water
2. submerged in water 3. pressurized to 3000 psi 4. causes cylinder to expand 5. water gets displaced into burette 6. if there's a hole in cylinder bubbles form and furter displace water in burette |
|
What are the pin positions for O2?
|
2,5
|
|
What are the pin positions for N20?
|
3,5
|
|
What are the pin positions for air?
|
1,5
|
|
What is the pressure of the pipeline O2?
|
50-60 psi
|
|
What do compressed air systems have that make them potentially dangerous to people?
|
oil-lubricated, can cause oil pneumonitits
(system is used for air tools not people) (100 psi) |
|
What is a simple breathing system with no valves, hi gas flows, dilution of anesthetic with room air, and for spontaneous ventilation only?
|
the open system: insufflation
|
|
What is the only way to accurately deliver concentration of gas during insufflation anesthesia?
|
to exceed the peak inspiratory flow with flow of gas
|
|
What has one way inspiratory and expiratory valves; gas supply must equal TV unless there is a self-inflating reservoir bag?
|
AMBU valve
typical valve resistance = 1-2 cm H2O |
|
What is an example of a demand valve?
|
SCBA
|
|
What is a 3 limb system:
fresh gas flow pt reservoir/outflow? |
Ayre's T-piece
|
|
What are advantages to Ayre's T-peice system?
(2) |
valveless/low resistance
minimal dead space |
|
What are disadvantages of Ayre's T-peice system?
(4) |
High gas flow only
2-3 x minute ventilation non-scavenging spontaneously ventilating only |
|
What system added a bag to the t-peice systme and expiratory valve?
|
Magill system
expiratory valve at mask improved efficiency in spontaneously vent |
|
What is the Mapleson A system used for?
|
spontaneously vent peds - expiratory valve close to pt, fresh gas flow = min vent
|
|
What ist the Mapleson D used for?
|
aka Bain system
controlled ventilation |
|
What are advantages to the Bain system?
|
light weight
low resistance minimizes work of breathing |
|
What system has 2 valves, reservoir bag and CO2 absorber?
|
Circle system
|
|
Describe the flow thru the circle system
|
1. Fresh gas enters from CGO of anesthesia machine
2. Flows thru insp. limb 1-way valve 3. thru insp breathing tube 4. thru y peice to pt 5. from pt thru exp breathing tube 6. thru 1-way exp. valve 7. in and out of reservoir bag 8. thru absorbent canister 9. back to pt (excess gas out thru APL or scavenging system) |
|
What is resistance typically in circle system from tubing and valves?
|
2cm H2O PEEP
|
|
What is typical granule size in CO2 absorber?
|
4-8 mesh
|
|
What is it called when flow is greater than minute volume in circle system?
|
open system
|
|
What is it called when flow is less than minute volume in circle system?
|
semi-closed system
|
|
What is it called when pt is consuming the amound of gas given in circle system?
|
closed system
|
|
What is the main source of resistance in the circle system?
|
valves (adds 80 mJ of work; resistance increases work of breathing 27%)
|
|
What can depress cardiac filling, CO and increase rate of anesthetic induction?
|
PEEP
|
|
True/False
Spontaneous ventilation functions as a negative feedback system during GA. |
true
|
|
What provides a source of gas to meet peak inspiratory demand (~50 L/min)?
|
Reservoir bag
|
|
What provides a recepticle for pt's exhaled gas and fresh gas flow?
|
Reservoir bag
|
|
What provides some protection for overpressure in breathing ciruit?
|
Reservoir bag
|
|
What pops off excess pressure whenever valve setting is exceeded?
|
APL valve
|
|
In which anesthesia machine is the pt's TV a combo of vent volume and fresh gas flow?
|
Narcomed
|
|
In which anesthesia machine is the pt's TV independent of fresh gas flow?
|
GE Avance
|
|
What happens on exhalation using the GE Avance?
|
pt's gas and fres gas flow into bellows;
pop off valve opens when bellows full |
|
What happens on inhalation using the GE Avance?
|
pop-off valve closes;
bello's gas and fresh gas flow to pt |
