Q

What is the function of the pop off valve

A

Allows access gas to exit the system

17
Q

What is the function of the scavenger

A

Collects and disposes waste gas

18
Q

What is the function of CO2 absorber

A

Absorbs co2 from rebreathed air

19
Q

What is the function of the pressure manometer

A

Measures gas pressures in breathing system

20
Q

What is the purpose for a low pressure leak test

A

Checks for leaks from the anesthetic machine to breathing circuit at 15 psi

21
Q

What is the induction rate for the circle system

A

100-200 ml/kg/min

22
Q

What is the induction rate for the Bain system

A

130-300ml/kg/min

23
Q

What is the maintence rate for the circle system

A

25-50ml/kg/min

24
Q

What is the maintenance rate for the Bain system

A

140-200ml/kg/min

25
Q

Why do we use keyed filler devices

A

Prevent introduction of incorrect anesthetic

26
Q

What habits can minimize exposure to Anesthetic gas

A

Refill vaporizer at the end of the day. Recap bottles before discarding. Store vaporizer filling devices in sealed bag.

27
Q

How do you clean flutter valves

A

Mild soap and water

28
Q

What is the purpose of the manual mode of the ecg

A

To control the lead used

29
