9.7 Attachment 7: Decision support in case of supply shortages
This chapter gives decision support for the case of supply shortages during the use of anesthesia devices
for long-term ventilation.
IMPORTANT: In general, the advice and recommendations in the customer letter “COVID-19: Usage of
Dräger anesthesia devices for long-term ventilation” should be taken into account.
The following remarks should only be considered as an ultima ratio if a corresponding supply bottleneck
exists or is unavoidable. Depending on the therapy goal and the available options, the alternatives given
and the associated consequences must be weighed by the responsible user, possibly together with users
who are very familiar with the anesthesia devices used. The sequence of the indicated measures does
not necessarily represent a prioritization.
Clinic intern guidelines such as for example infection prevention or SOPs have to be followed.
