2 Theory of Operation 2.3 Flow through the breathing system 2.3.1 Overview of flow This section looks at three types of flow paths. paths • Ventilation paths: How gas flows from the drive source (bag or bellows) to and from the patient. •...
Aespire 7900 2.3.2 Manual ventilation Manual inspiration The Bag/Vent switch closes the ventilator path (B)..(Figure 2-4) Gas flows from the bag (1), through the absorber (2), into the breathing circuit module, and through a unidirectional valve (inspiratory check valve) to the patient (3).
Page 35
2 Theory of Operation Manual expiration The Bag/Vent switch keeps the ventilator path closed (B). (Figure 2-5) Gas flows from the patient (4), through a unidirectional valve (expiratory check valve), and into the bag (5). During exhalation, fresh gas flows backwards through the absorber (FG) into the expiratory limb, downstream of the expiratory check valve.
Page 36
Aespire 7900 APL Valve The APL valve sets a pressure limit for manual ventilation. (Figure 2-6) As you turn the APL knob, it puts more or less force on the APL disc and seat (D/S). If the circuit pressure is too high (6), the disc and seat inside the diaphragm opens and vents gas to the scavenging system (7).
2 Theory of Operation 2.3.3 Mechanical ventilation Mechanical inspiration The Bag/Vent switch closes the manual path (V). Pilot pressure (P) closes the (Figure 2-7) exhalation valve. Drive gas (D) pushes down on the bellows. Gas flows from the bellows (1), through the absorber (2), and through a unidirectional valve (inspiratory check valve) to the patient (3).
Page 38
Aespire 7900 Mechanical expiration Drive-gas flow stops and the exhalation valve opens. Exhaled gas flows from (Figure 2-8) the patient (4), through a unidirectional valve (expiratory check valve) and into the bellows (5). Residual drive gas (D) flows out of the bellows to the scavenging system (6).
Page 39
2 Theory of Operation Pop-off valve The pop-off valve limits the pressure inside the bellows to 2.5 cm H O above (Figure 2-9) the drive gas pressure. This normally occurs when the bellows reaches the top of the housing at the end of exhalation. Excess gas (7) vents to the scavenging system (6) through the pop-off valve and the exhalation valve.
Aespire 7900 2.3.4 Fresh gas and O flush flow To ABS breathing system Fresh gas (1) flows from the vaporizer manifold outlet to the ACGO Selector (Figure 2-10) Switch. With the ACGO Selector Switch in the ABS position, fresh gas flow is channeled to the breathing system.
Page 41
2 Theory of Operation Auxiliary Common Gas Fresh gas (1) flows from the vaporizer manifold outlet to the ACGO Selector Switch. Outlet (Figure 2-11) With the ACGO Selector Switch in the ACGO position, fresh gas flow is channeled to the ACGO outlet.
Aespire 7900 2.4 Aespire 7900 Ventilator The Aespire 7900 Ventilator is a microprocessor based, electronically- controlled, pneumatically-driven ventilator with built in monitoring systems for inspired oxygen, airway pressure and exhaled volume. The ventilator is designed to be used as a medical device assisting in the delivery of anesthesia and is part of the Aespire Anesthesia Machine.

The Flash memory devices are socketed. System RAM This memory consists of two 128 K x 16 CMOS static RAMs with on-board expansion capability to 512K x 16 SRAMs.
DATA acquisition The data acquisition system for the Aespire 7900 Ventilator consists of two major building blocks. The first is an analog to digital converter (ADC) system and the second is a digital to analog converter (DAC) system.
Aespire 7900 Analog to digital A 24 channel multiplexer and buffer amplifier precedes the A/D converter. The converter System manifold pressure, patient pressure, inspiratory flow and expiratory flow signal inputs to the multiplexer are filtered with an antialiasing filter. Other inputs are filtered by low pass filters.
Page 55
2 Theory of Operation Flow valve control The flow valve control circuit consists of a D/A converter and a voltage to current conversion circuit. D/A conversion The D/A conversion for the flow valve drive circuit is based around the MAX530 12-Bit DAC.
Aespire 7900 Front panel display All signals to and from the Front Panel are protected from ESD through the use of interface transient suppression devices and appropriate filtering. All of these signals are routed through a single connector from the microcontroller board to the front panel assembly.
(ABS On/Off in the Aespire 7900), CO bypass switch (wired On in the Aespire 7900), and breathing circuit ID switches (in the Aespire 7900 the circuit ID “switches” are wired to a special configuration so that software knows it is an ABS circle system).
Aespire 7900 Functional description Power Supply Regulators The ESIB power supply is a 10 VA limited +12 volt supply originating at the CPU board. It is filtered as it comes onto the ESIB board. There are three regulators on the ESIB that are supplied by the +12 volt supply. The first regulator is a LP2951 low dropout regulator that produces digital +5 volts.
Page 59
2 Theory of Operation Oxygen Sensor Interface The Oxygen sensor connects to the ESIB via a 6 position / 4 pin modular phone jack. The sensor generates a linear output voltage that depends upon the O concentration being measured. The oxygen sensor produces an output of 3 to 15 mV DC in air (21% ).
Page 60
The DPL (drive pressure limit) switch is a pneumatic switch and is used to monitor the airway pressure. (In the Aespire 7900, the DPL switch monitors the Vent Engine manifold pressure to limit patient airway pressure.) It is designed to trip if the airway pressure reaches 104 cm H O nominal.
