Description
Key Features
Single-Limb Pediatric Design: This circuit is a "single-limb" system, meaning it has one tube for both breathing in and out. It is specifically designed and sized for use with pediatric patients.
12-Inch Corrugated Tubing: The main tube is corrugated, which provides flexibility and durability. Its 12-inch length is tailored for pediatric use.
1/2-Liter Breathing Bag: The circuit includes a 1/2-liter breathing bag. This bag is used by the clinician to provide manual, controlled ventilation to the patient.
Integrated Connectors and Components: It features a Washington tee, a gas sampling elbow, and a cut bag tail. The gas sampling elbow allows for easy monitoring of the patient's exhaled gases, like CO₂, which is critical for ensuring proper ventilation.
Single-Patient Use: This circuit is designed for single-patient use to maintain hygiene and prevent cross-contamination.
Common Uses
Anesthesia in a Surgical Setting: This breathing circuit is primarily used by anesthesiologists and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) to deliver inhaled anesthetics and oxygen to pediatric patients during surgical or medical procedures.
Controlled and Assisted Ventilation: The breathing bag and overall design of the circuit allow the clinician to manually assist or control the patient's breathing, ensuring adequate oxygenation while they are under anesthesia.
Respiratory Monitoring: The gas sampling port allows for continuous monitoring of the patient's respiratory status, which is a vital part of providing safe anesthesia care.
