Overview
- Category Anesthesia equipment
- Subcategory Workstation
- Model Aisys CS2
- Manufacturer GE Healthcare
- Web site https://www.gehealthcare.com/products/anesthesia-solutions/aisys-cs2
- Weight 168 kg
- Pre-use checklist Automated electronic checklist with some manual steps
- Electronic anesthesia record capable
- Monitoring
- Machine- Breathing circuit pressure, tidal volume, flow, spirometry (pressure-volume or flow-volume loops), airway gas monitor (infrared- nitrous oxide, anesthetic agents, capnography; oxygen analysis [paramagnetic])
- Patient physiological-Generally provided with EKG, NIBP, SpO2, Temperature
Supply
- Power Electric
- Power failure
- Battery backup (30min heavy load; up to 90 min normal load)
- Emergency O2- Needle valve & glass flowtube supplies oxygen in case of electric power loss (main & battery)
- Power failure
- Gas supply Pipeline oxygen, air, nitrous oxide at 50 psi
- Gas supply failure E tanks (one for each of the three gases) attached to yoke block behind machine
Processing
- Fresh gas flow Electronic gas mixer controls & displays flows of oxygen, nitrous oxide, air. No minimum oxygen flow.
- Avoidance of hypoxic gas mixtures
- Electronically controlled fail safe, hypoxic guard
- EndTidal Control (EtC)[1]
- Closed loop control of end-tidal anesthetic agent and oxygen
- Rather than set process variables (O2 flow, agent percent), the user sets desired outcomes (end-tidal agent & oxygen). The EtC then selects fresh gas flows and agent concentration settings to achieve the desired outcomes. Typically EtC achieves this more quickly, with far fewer control inputs by user, and using less agent than using traditional methods [2]
Delivery
- Breathing circuit
- Circle type [add image?]
- Volume 4.9 L in vent mode, 3.2 L in bag mode[3]
- Heated? No. Usually supplied with condenser to limit humidity accumulation
- Absorbent- Loose fill granules or prepackaged cassettes (800 gm).
- Ventilator
- Name- SmartVent 7900
- Type/Principle of operation- Dual circuit, pneumatically-driven bellows ventilator with tidal volume corrected for leaks, compliance, and fresh gas flow. Ascending ("standing") bellows compressed by driving gas creates inspiratory force. Driving gas is oxygen (can switch to pipeline air if pipeline oxygen pressure loss). Variable orifice flow sensors compensate for compliance losses and leaks from their location near the breathing circuit unidirectional valves. Accurate to very low tidal volumes in volume control mode (20-1500 mL). The "bag/vent" switch activates the mechanical ventilator in one step.
- Modes- Manual/Spontaneous, Volume Control, Pressure Control, PCV with Volume guarantee, PSVPro (Pressure Support with Apnea backup), Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV with Volume or Pressure controlled), electronic PEEP
- Vaporizers: Electronic control of vaporization, uses Aladin cassettes.
Disposal
- Scavenging Active (connected to suction) scavenger interface may be closed or open, or passive (must use closed interface).
