Q

What are intermediate pressure components?

A
  1. Pipeline inlets & pressure gauges
  2. Gas power outlet (ventilatory/accessory outlet)
  3. Master switch (pneumatic component)
  4. Oxygen flush valve
  5. Oxygen pressure failure device (fail-safe) & alarm
  6. Oxygen & nitrous oxide second-stage pressure regulators
  7. Flowmeter valves
18
Q

What is intermediate pressure?

A

37-55 psi (this is pipeline or pressure after cylinder regulator)

19
Q

what prevents reverse gas flow into pipelines?

A

one-way check valve

20
Q

what is the function of gas power outlet?

A

gas source for ventilator

or supply gas for a jet ventilator

21
Q

Where is the master switch located in relation to the inlets for cylinder & pipeline supplies?

A

Downstream

22
Q

What is NOT permitted when machine is in stand by ?

A
  • No gas can flow to the patient
  • No electrical power goes to the Ventilator, Display, or CPU
  • O2 Flush is still available provided an oxygen supply is connected
  • Electrical outlets (if equipped) are still active
  • Battery will recharge
23
Q

What still works when the machine is turned OFF?

A

Suction
Auxillary flow metter
Flush 02

24
Q

What supplies the O2 flush button?

A

pipeline or cylinder (which ever is higher)

25
Q

What is the flow of O2 flush to common outlet?

A

35-75 L/min

26
Q

When on the ventilator when can you use the O2 flush?

A

when the bellow are goin up

27
Q

What is O2 Fail-Safe device/alarm?

A

Device that shuts off or proportionally decreases all gases except oxygen or alarms when oxygen pressure has fallen to a dangerous level (usually <30 psig)

28
Q

How does O2 Fail-Safe device/alarm help?

A

They aid in preventing hypoxia caused by problems occurring upstream in the machine circuitry (disconnected oxygen hose, low oxygen pressure in the pipeline, & depletion of oxygen cylinders).

29
Q

In the Datex-Ohmeda O2 fail-safe, when do gas flows stop?

A

when O2 pressure < 20 psi

stops flow of both N2O and air

30
Q

In the Drager Oxygen Failure Protection Device, does what when O2 pressure fails?

A

N2O flow decrease proportionally with O2 pressure

31
Q

When is the alarm component of the O2 Fail-Safe device/alarm activated?

A

when O2 pressure <30 psig

32
Q

What is the function of the Secondary pressure regulator?

A

Reduce intermediate pressure to low pressure (20 psi O2, 38 psi N2O)

Decrease pressure fluctuations (in pipeline)

33
Q

On the flowmeter valves, which way do you turn the knob to allow gas flow into the flowtube?

A

counter clockwise

34
Q

What are low pressure components?

A
  1. Hypoxic guard/proportioning systems
  2. Flowmeter tubes
  3. Vaporizers
  4. Check valves (if present)
  5. Common gas outlet
35
Q

Where do the low pressure components start?

A

after flow control valves

36
Q

On link 25, how many teeth on each sprocket?

A 
N20 = 14
O2 = 28
37
Q

when does the link 25 kick in?

A

when N2O flow is 3 x that of O2

38
Q

what does the kick in tab of link 25 allow?

A

This means that oxygen can always be turned up without affecting the amount of nitrous oxide being delivered. Conversely, nitrous oxide can always be turned down without affecting the volume of oxygen being delivered.

39
Q

When considering flow meters, how does altitude effect the flow meters?

A

Increased altitude (decreased barometric pressure) will result in flow rates that are greater than indicated on the flowmeter.

40
Q

what are the volumes of low flow and high flow tubes?

A 
low =  mL
High = L
41
Q

Where is O2 on the flow meter sequence?

A

oxygen is the last gas before the manifold outlet because it is the safest arrangement
