  1. 3. Breathing systems R1 문은진

  2. Definition • Assembly of components which connects the patient’s airway to the anesthetic machine • Providing the final conduit for the delivery of anesthetic gases to the patient

  3. Classification • Insufflation • Open – drop anesthesia • Draw-over anesthesia • Mapleson circuits • The circle system • Resuscitation system

  4. Insufflation • The blowing of anesthetic gases across a patient’s face • Avoids direct connection between a breathing circuit and a patient’s airway • Because children resist the placement of a face mask or an IV line, insufflation is valuable • CO2 accumulation is avoided with insufflation of oxygen & air at high flow rate(>10 L/m) under H & N draping at ophthalmic surgery • Maintain arterial oxygenation during brief periods of apnea

  5. Open- drop anesthesia • Not used in modern medicine • A highly volatile anesthetic is dripped onto a gauze–covered mask applied to the patient’s face (vaporization->lowers mask temp.>moisture condensation->drop in anesthetic vapor pr.)

  6. Draw-over anesthesia

  7. Draw-over anestheaia • Nonrebreathing circuits • Use ambient air as the carrier gas • Inspired vapor and oxygen concentrations are predictable & controllable • Advantage; simplicity, portability • Disadvantage; absence of reservoir bag -> not well appreciating the depth of TV during spontaneous ventilation

  8. Disadvantages of the insufflation & draw-over systems • Poor control of inspired gas concentration & depth of anesthesia • Inability to assist or control ventilation • No conservation of exhaled heat or humidity • Difficult airway management during head & neck surgery • Pollution of the operating room with large volumes of waste gas

  9. Mapleson circuits • Incorporating additional components - breathing tubes - fresh gas inlets - adjustable pressure limiting (APL) valves - reservoir bag

  10. A. Breathing tubes • Corrugated breathing tubes - connect the components of the Mapleson circuit to the patient • Large diameter of tubes (22mm) - low resistance pathway - potential reservoir for anesthetic gases

  11. B. Fresh gas inlet • gases(anesthetics with oxygen or air) from the anesthesia machine -> enter the circuit through the fresh gas inlet • the relative position of fresh gas inlet - a key differentiating factor in Mapleson circuit performance

  12. C. Adjustable pressure limiting valve(pressure-relief valve, pop-off valve) • Allowing gases to exit the circuit through an APL valve -> control pressure build up • Fully open the APL valve during spontaneous ventaillation ! -> for remaining circuit pressure negligible throughout inspiration and expiration • Partial closure of the APL valve limits gas exit -> permitting positive circuit pressure during reservoir bag compressions

  13. D. Reservoir bag(breathing bag) • Reservoir of anesthetic gas and a method of generating positive-pressure ventilation • Phase Ⅰ; the nominal 3L capacity of an adult reservoir bag is achieved • Phase Ⅱ; Pr rises rapidly to a peak • Phase Ⅲ; plateau or even a slight decrease in Pr --- ceilling effect ! -> help to protect the patient’s lungs against high airway pressures

  14. Performance characterisitcs of MC • Lightweight, inexpensive, simple • Breathing circuit efficiency - depends on the fresh gas flow required eliminating CO2 rebreathing • Mapleson A • CO2 exhaled into breathing tube or directly vented through open APL valve • Most efficient for spontaneous ventilation. • Mapleson D • Interchanging APL valve and fresh gas inlet ->FGF forces alveolar air away from pt. toward the APL valve -> efficient during controlled ventilation • Bain circuit • Retains heat and humidity • Decrease the circuit’s bulk • Possibility of kinking or disconnection of the fresh gas inlet tubing

  15. The circle system

  16. A. carbon dioxide absorbent • Eliminating CO2 in exhaled gas to prevent hypercapnea • CO2 absorbent(sodalime, barium hydroxide lime) -> containing hydroxide salt -> neutralizing carbonic acid

  17. A. carbon dioxide absorbent • Increasing hydrogen ion concentration - Color conversion of a pH indicator dye -> 50-70% has changed color -> absorbent should be replaced • Absorbent granules can absorb and later release significant amounts of volatile anesthetic -> delay induction or emergence • The drier the soda lime, the more absorb and degrade volatile anesthetics ; Desflurane be broken down to carbon monoxide -> clinically significant carbon monoxide poisoning

  18. B. Carbon dioxide absorbers • Bulky, double canister permit -more complete CO2 absorption -less frequent changes -lower gas flow resistance • Patient’s TV should not exceed the air space between absorbent granules(=50% of the absorber’s capacity) • Dust trap - collect dust and moisture

  19. C. Unidirectional valves • Function as check valves • Contain a ceramic or mica disk resting horizontally on an annular valve seat • Forward flow -> disk upward -> gas proceed through the circuit • Reverse flow -> push disk against its seat -> preventing reflux

  20. C. Unidirectional valves • Inhalation - Open the inspiratory valve - Breath a mixture of fresh and exhaled gas - Pass through the CO2 absorber - Simultaneously, expiratory valve close (preventing rebreathing of exhaled gas) • Exhalation - Open the expiratory valve - Vented through the APL valve or rebreathed by the Pt after passing through the absorbers - Closure of the inspiratory valve (preventing expiratory gas from mixing with fresh gas)

  21. Optimization of circle system design • Unidirectional valves • Close to the pt ; prevent back flow into inspiratory limb • Not placed in the Y-piece • The fresh gas inlet • Between the absorber and the inspiratory valve • APL valve • Immediately before the absorber; conserve absorption capacity, minimize venting of fresh gas • Reservoir bag • Locating in the expiratory limb; resistance to exhalation is decreased

  22. Performance characteristics of the circle system-A. Fresh gas requirement • At low fresh gas flows(<1L) With absorber- preventing rebreathing of CO2 • At fresh gas flows>5L rebreathing so minimal – absorber is unnecessary • the greater FGF , the less time for a change in fresh gas anesthetic concentration • Higher flows - speed induction, recovery - compensate for leaks in the circuit - decrease the risks of unanticipated gas mixture

  23. Performance characteristics of the circle system- B. Dead space • Part of TV that does not undergo alveolar ventilation • Unidirectional valve • Apparatus dead space is limited to the area distal to the point ins-exp gas mixing at the Y-piece • Breathing-tube length does not affect dead space

  24. Performance characteristics of the circle systemC. Resistance • Unidirectional valves and absorber - increase circle system resistance (at high RR, large TV)

  25. Performance characteristics of the circle system-D. Humidity and heat conservation • Medical gas – dehumidified gases at room temp. • Exhaled gas – saturated with water at body temp. • The heat and humidity of inspired gas - depend on the relative proportion of rebreathed gas to fresh gas • Absorbent granules- significant source of heat and moisture in the circle system

  26. Performance characteristics of the circle system-E. Bacterial contamination • Slightly risk of microorganism retention in circle system component -> respiratory infections in subsequent Pt • Bacterial filters are incorporated into the breathing tubes or at the Y- piece

  27. Resuscitation breathing systems • Resuscitation bags(AMBU bags or bag-mask units) - used for emergency ventilation - simplicity, portability, ability to deliver almost 100% oxygen - contain nonrebreathing valve

  28. The Pt valve open • Allow gas flow • from the ventilation bag to the pt. • Exhalation ports in this valve • Venting exhaled gas to atmosphere • Rebreathing is prevented • Intake valve • Close during bag compression, permitting positive ventilation • Connecting a reservoir->prevent the entrapment of room air • Reservoir valve assembly-two unidirectional valves • Inlet valve; allow ambient air to enter the ventilation bag if FGF is inadequate to maintain reservoir filling • Outlet valve; venting oxygen if FGF is excessive

  29. Disadvantage • Require high fresh gas flows to achieve a high FIO2 • Proportional to the oxygen concentration • Proportional to flow rate of the gas mixture supplied to the resuscitator • Inversely proportional to the MV delivered to the Pt. • Exhaled moisture – cause valve sticking -The end-
