Preparation to use
When the CO 2 absorber canister is inserted, the system is
automatically configured in rebreathing modality.
When the canister is removed, the system is automatically configured in
non rebreathing modality (real open circuit).
It is possible to insert and remove the canister during interventions. The
canister is available in reusable or pre-loaded disposable versions.
WARNING! Risk of personal injuries
Handle the absorber canister with care.
The absorber (soda lime) is corrosive and highly irritanting for the skin,
the eyes, and, if inhaled, for respiratory airways.
For the "SELF TEST" phase (leaks and compliance test) it is NOT
necessary that the CO 2 absorber canister is mounted on the valves
group.
WARNING. Risk of injury for the patient
The soda lime loses humidity: if the humidity falls below the minimum
set value, undesired reactions could occur regardless of the type of
employed soda lime and anesthetic gas:
•
•
•
•
These reactions could be dangerous for the patient.
In case of use of dry gas and only if necessary, just briefly rinse the
anaesthesia system.
6-8
Reduced absorption of CO 2 .
Increased heat generation in the soda lime and then increased
temperature of inhalation gases.
Formation of CO 2 .
Absorption and/or decomposition of anesthetic gas for inhalation.
