Anaesthetic Breathing Systems
The function of breathing is to maintain a supply of oxygen to the lungs for oxygenation of the tissues, and to remove carbon dioxide from the body. When used for spontaneous ventilation, a breathing circuit must enable a patient to breathe satisfactorily without significantly increasing the work of breathing or the physiological deadspace. It must also conduct inhalational anaesthetic agents t...
متن کاملAnaesthetic breathing systems in the accident and emergency department.
We report two cases where patients with an acute head injury developed hypercapnia as a result of the inappropriate use of the Magill breathing circuit. The Magill circuit is inefficient when used for controlled ventilation because the patient is ventilated with his own expired gas and develops hypercapnia. The suitability of alternative breathing systems are discussed.
متن کاملresistance of potatoes to airflow
knowledge of airflow resistance is an important consideration in designing an appro-priate ventilation system and for proper fan selection. an airflow resistance device was designed and fabricated to measure the airflow resistance of potatoes. the device the composed of an air compressor, a rotameter, a cylindrical bin to contain the potatoes and an inclined u-tube manometer. airflow resistance...

randomized to therapy with linezolid. Therefore, we think that the conclusion that linezolid “is associated” with lower mortality rates and greater clinical success rates than vancomycin in patients with MRSA pneumonia is valid. We, as the nonemployee authors of these manuscripts, and many other clinicians who have been presented these data have raised the same concerns about subgroup analysis ...
متن کاملairflow resistance in walnuts
the harvested walnut has a relatively high moisture content of 30% compared with the safe storage moisture content of 8%. one of the common means of reducing the moisture content is by drying. for design of drying and other aeration systems for agricultural products including walnuts, the relationship between the drop in pressure and airflow velocity must be known. an airflow resistance app...
