Patient spirometry sets for use with Anaesthesia and anaesthesia machines that include a spirometry option.
The patient spirometry sets comprise of a lightweight flow sensor, and a choice of 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 metre long ‘3-in-1’ tube assembly.
Flow sensors
The lightweight flow sensor is designed for simultaneously monitoring anaesthetic and airway gases along with lung mechanics such as volumes, flows and pressures. The flow sensor utilises three ports, one for sidestream gas analysis and two for lung mechanics. The flow sensor, positioned in the breathing system as close as possible to the patient’s airway, will provide continuous and accurate information regarding the status of the patient’s spontaneous breathing, or mechanical ventilation.
‘3-in-1’ tube
The ‘3-in-1’ tube assembly houses a conventional monitoring line for gas analysis, and the two tubes for lung mechanics measurement, which are joined together with colour coded manifolds at each end. The green manifold connects to the flow sensor, and the white manifold connects to the monitor.
The Intersurgical patient sensors sets are compatible with the following anaesthesia machines: GE® Healthcare – Aestiva®, Aisys®, Aespire®, and Avance® (if fitted with patient spirometry).
We also offer a range of breathing systems for the GE® Healthcare anaesthesia machines.
Please note: Intersurgical patient spirometry flow sensors are not advised for use with active heated humidifier breathing systems. Philips IntelliSave® AX700, Dameca® Siesta i, Dameca® MRI 508, Dameca® Siesta i Whispa.
