- less efficient system then A
- SV & CV FGF = 2-2.5xMV
Mapleson C
- No corrugated tubing
- SV FGF = 2xMV
- CV FGF = 2-2.5xMV
Mapleson D
- Reversed version of A
- FGF near pt ensures adequate CO2 elimination
- Easy gas scavenging during CV
- SV FGF = 2xMV
- CV FGF = 1-2xMV
Bain Circut
FGF enters corrugated tubing
- Maintains h/h
- Incr resistence in "airway"
- SV FGF = 2xMV
- CV FGF = 2-2.5xMV
Mapleson E
Ayer's T-Piece
