Anesthesia Machine Summary

Anesthesiology is an important part of clinical medicine.

Anesthesia machine is indispensable equipment for the implementation of anesthesia in clinical operations. 

With the continuous development of science and technology, new theories and new methods continue to emerge, 

the theory and practice of anesthesiology have also been greatly improved, 

and the structure and functions of anesthesia machines have also improved day by day. 

In particular, the application of electronic computer technology has greatly improved the level of modern inhalation anesthesia machines. 

The development of anesthesia machines has evolved from simple pneumatic equipment to complex modern machines 

composed of computer-based controllers, displays, indicators and alarms.

Inhalation anesthesia delivers anesthetics to the patient's alveoli through a mechanical circuit, 

forming a partial pressure of the anesthetic gas. After it diffuses into the blood, 

it directly inhibits the central nervous system, thus producing the effect of general anesthesia. 

Inhalation anesthesia is easy to control, safe, effective, and has good clinical results.

Anesthesia machine is a device used to distribute and deliver medical anesthesia vapor into a respiratory system. 

Its function is to provide oxygen, inhalation of anesthetics and respiratory management to the patient. 

The concentration of oxygen and inhaled anesthetic required by the anesthesia machine should be precise, 

stable and easy to control. 

Modern anesthesia machines are required to be able to release an accurate amount of anesthetic gas from the 

compressed gas cylinder and an accurate concentration of anesthetic vapor from the evaporator, 

while ensuring adequate oxygen supply, complete carbon dioxide emissions, small dead space, 

and low respiratory resistance. In addition, in order to prevent human or mechanical failures from harming patients, 

a reliable safety control system is also needed.
