Introduction Anesthetic Gases and O Concentration Monitoring Introduction The anesthetic gas (AG) module measures patients' anesthetic and respiratory gases and incorporates the functionalities of the O module as well. The AG (anesthesia gas) module determines the concentrations of certain gases using the infrared (IR) light absorption measurement.
Anesthetic Gases and O Concentration Monitoring MAC Values MAC Values The minimum alveolar concentration (hereinafter referred to as MAC) can be displayed on the screen when the anesthesia system is configured with external AG module. MAC is a basic index indicating the depth of inhaled anesthesia. The ISO 80601-2-55 defines MAC as follows: alveolar concentration of an inhaled anesthetic agent that, in the absence of other anesthetic agents and at equilibrium, prevents 50% of subjects from moving in response to a standard surgical stimulus.
Agent Usage Calculation Anesthetic Gases and O Concentration Monitoring Agent Usage Calculation CAUTION: The Agent Usage Calculation feature is intended for management purposes only and shall not be used as a basis for clinical decision-making. The agent usage is displayed on the standby screen. The agent usage accumulates from 0 when the anesthesia system exits the standby mode.
Anesthetic Gases and O Concentration Monitoring Identify External AG Module Set the [Agent Usage] to (off ) or (on). If the [Agent Usage] is set to (off ), no agent consumption speed is displayed on the Main Screen. If the [Agent Usage] is set to (on), the agent consumption speed is displayed on the Main Screen.
AG Measurement Preparation Anesthetic Gases and O Concentration Monitoring AG Measurement Preparation Select the appropriate watertrap according to patient type and attach it to the watertrap socket. Connect one end of the gas sampling tube to the watertrap. Connect the other end of the gas sampling tube to the patient via the airway adapter. Connect the exhaust tube to the gas outlet on the module to channel the sample gas back to the patient circuit.
Anesthetic Gases and O Concentration Monitoring AG Module Settings AG Module Settings You can do the following settings when the anesthesia system is configured with an external AG module. 7.7.1 Set Operating Mode When the anesthesia system enters standby mode, then the AG module will also enter its standby mode.
