Checking anaesthetic equipment: AAGBI 2012 guidelines.
The modern anaesthetic machine is a complex device. It has evolved from a ‘trolley’ that did little more than deliver gas to the patient, into a ‘workstation’ with multiple delivery modalities, multiple safety features and multiple integrated monitoring devices. In addition, we have at our disposal many more pieces of complex equipment, separate from the anaesthesia workstation itself, to help ...

In 1990, Clarke and Hall carried out a survey of anaesthetic mortality in small animal practice. Their findings suggested that approximately 1 in 679 healthy dogs and cats died as a result of anaesthesia, while the figure increased to 1 in 31 for sick patients.

All government hospitals were provided with anaesthetic equipment and personnel were trained to keep it regularly serviced. Follow up testing of reliability wa...
متن کاملGaseous homeostasis and the circle system. Factors influencing anaesthetic gas exchange.
A mathematical model of a subject breathing from a circle system has been used to follow the course of anaesthetic uptake during the simulated administration of 60% nitrous oxide, 2% halothane and 2% methoxyflurane, under non-rebreathing conditions and with fresh gas flows to the circle system of between 8 and 0.25 litre min-1. Compared with the non-rebreathing state, the use of a circle system...
متن کاملAnaesthetic monitoring: clinical practice in anaesthetic rooms and theatres.
Twenty anaesthetic rooms and operating theatres in Northern Ireland were visited in both 1990 and 1992. Data was collected on the availability and use of anaesthetic monitoring. In the anaesthetic rooms there were few pulse oximeters. In the theatres more monitors were available and in use. Some change in practice had occurred between 1990 and 1992, notably an increase in the monitoring of vent...
