Table 9-3 Miscellaneous Information
Approximately 5 to 7 ml per pound of patient weight.
Example: 100 pound dog x 5-7 ml per pound = 500 to 700 ml tidal volume
Approximately 5 times the tidal volume.
Example: tidal volume of 400 ml x 5 = 2 liter bag
Non-rebreathing circuits: 100 ml/pound/minute (higher flows for induction;
minimum 250 ml
Semi-closed rebreathing system:
Low Flow – 5 to 10 ml/pound/minute
High Flow – 10 to 50 ml/pound/minute
Height: 30 in.
Diameter: 3.5 in.
Volume: 651 L
Initial Pressure: 1800 – 2200 psi
Service Duration: Approximately 11 hours at 1.0 liter/minute
Note: Does not include O
Mounting: Can be mounted to a yoke on the anesthesia system stand or small
cylinder cart.
Advantages:
Easily portable to multiple usage areas
Can be mounted on the anesthesia system stand
Height: 54 in.
Diameter: 8.5 in.
Volume: 7107 L
Initial Pressure: 1800 – 2200 psi
Service Duration: Approximately 118 hours at 1.0 liter/minute
Note: Does not include O
Mounting: Mount securely to a large cylinder cart or a solid surface.
Advantages:
Good when anesthesia system is used in a limited area
Needs fewer refills
Lower operational cost
Must be capable of reducing tank pressure to 50-55 psi.
Note: Do not use a separate flow regulator (already part of the anesthesia
system).
