2.1.3 Components
The anesthesia machine consists of a main unit, vaporizer (five optional anesthetic agents:
enflurane, isoflurane, sevoflurane, desflurane and halothane), anesthetic ventilator, electronic
flowmeter assembly, breathing system etc.
The anesthesia machine provides monitoring and displaying of respiratory mechanics (RM)
parameters (airway resistance and compliance) and spirometry loops as well. It is configured
with the following ventilation modes: volume control ventilation (VCV), pressure control
ventilation (PCV), pressure support ventilation (PSV), synchronized intermittent mandatory
ventilation—volume control (SIMV-VC) and synchronized intermittent mandatory
ventilation—pressure control (SIMV-PC).
The anesthesia machine can be externally connected to a patient monitor which is in
compliance with the requirements of relevant international standard and can be configured
with anesthesia information system (CIS).
The anesthesia machine features the following:
îš„ Automatic leak detection
îš„ Breathing system gas leak compensation and automatic compliance compensation
îš„ Cylinder and pipeline connections available for gas supplies
îš„ Electronic flowmeter and electronic PEEP
îš„ Timer which counts the duration between the start and end of an operation
îš„ Table top light
îš„ Information displayed in big numerics
îš„ User-adjustable display screen
îš„ Alarm events storage and review, fault status and maintenance information recording
îš„ Auxiliary O

supply and active anesthesia gas scavenging system (AGSS)
îš„ N2O cut-off
îš„ Modular AG, CO2 and BIS modules
îš„ Sample gas return to the AGSS
îš„ Setting CPB alarm mode
