28.3 Generic 10mm Single Use Patient
Circuit
It is recommended that a high quality bacteria filter
(SLE part No. N2029) is fitted at the fresh gas
connection to the humidifier inlet, however the
circuit may be used without. Connect the patient
circuit as shown in the diagram and described
below. Drain water trap regularly by removing the
bottom cup. (Circuit pressure is not lost when cup is
removed).
1. Humidifier Supply Line
If a bacteria filter is being used, fit the short tube to
the ventilator outlet marked “Fresh Gas to Patient”.
Fit the bacteria filter into this tube (Make sure the
arrow points towards the patient). Take the loose
length of tubing and connect the small end of this to
the bacteria filter and the larger end to the humidifier
inlet. If a bacteria filter is not being used, connect
the loose length of tube directly between the “Fresh
Gas to Patient” ventilator outlet and the humidifier
inlet.
2. Inspiratory Supply Line
Take the main patient circuit and fit the tube with the
large connector to the humidifier outlet. Plug the
electrical connector into the humidifier heated wire
supply.
3. Expiratory Supply Line
Take the clear tube with the large connector and fit
to the exhalation port of the ventilator. Position
water trap in an upright position at the lowest point
in the circuit limb.
4. Proximal Airway Pressure Line
Connect the small diameter clear tube from the
patient circuit to the proximal airway port on the
ventilator.
5. Temperature Monitoring
Two ports are provided for dual temperature probes,
one in the connector on the humidifier outlet (next to
the heated wire inlet) and a second port in the blue
tube close to the ET connector.
