摘要:
A method and an arrangement for processing respiratory gas of an intubated patient, wherein the level of humidity of the inhalation gas is increased, if necessary, before the gas is supplied to the patient. To provide accurate and correctly timed humidification, the patient's respiratory volume is measured, the amount of water discharged from the patient is determined on the basis of the measured respiratory volume, and a desired amount of water, dependent on the amount of water discharged from the patient, is supplied to the patient's respiratory tract during the next respiratory phase(s).

An electrically modulatable radiant source includes an essentially planar substrate, a well or hole formed in the substrate, and at least one incandescent filament attached to the substrate. The incandescent filament is aligned with the well or hole and is formed of a metallic compound which readily oxidizes at an operating temperature of the incandescent filament. An oxidation resistant film encapsulates the incandescent filament to prevent the filament from oxidizing. Furthermore, contact pads are formed on the substrate at both ends of the incandescent filament for feeding electric current to the incandescent filament.

The invention relates to a method and an arrangement in connection with vaporizing an anaesthetic. The invention comprises a vaporizing chamber for an anaesthetic liquid to be vaporized and means for mixing vaporized anaesthetic with fresh gas and delivering the mixture to be inhaled by a patient. To stabilize the temperature of the anaesthetic liquid in the vaporizing situation, an air flow enhancing the transfer of heat energy between the anaesthetic liquid within the vaporizing chamber and air outside the vaporizing chamber is applied to at least one exterior surface of the vaporizing chamber in forced circulation.

An arrangement for filling an anaesthetic vaporiser, the arrangement comprising a filling device to be connected to a transport package for an anaesthetic agent, the filling head of the device being attachable to an opening in the vaporiser. The arrangement comprises a fastening means for clamping the filling head against the sealing surface of conduits leading to the opening, and a valve means arranged to open when the filling head is in the clamped position against the sealing surface of the conduits leading to the opening and thus arranged to allow the flow of the anaesthetic agent between the vaporiser and the transport package and the flow of the substitute gas in the opposite direction between the transport package and the vaporiser. In order to provide simple operation, the arrangement further comprises a hydraulic container comprising arranged thereto a first piston means used to control the pressure of the hydraulic container, a second piston means connected to the fastening means, and a third piston means connected to one or several valve means one of which controls the flow of the anaesthetic agent.

The invention relates to an additional feature for use in a measuring sensor which is used for analyzing mediums spectroscopically. The measuring sensor comprises: a radiation source (1), emitting radiation which travels through a first window (3a) of a sample chamber (2), an absorption length (L1) and further a second window (3b) of the sample chamber (2), the sample chamber being provided, if necessary, with flow connections for a gas mixture; at least done detector (9), which is optically directed towards the second window; at least one optical filter (8), which is permeable to a certain wavelength band, or a radiation dispersion device between the radiation source and the detector. Between the first sample chamber window and the radiation source, the feature comprises a length (L2) and/or, between the second window and the detector, a length (L3), totalling at least about 20% of the absorption length. The length (L2) between an inner surface (13a) of the first sample chamber window and the radiation source and/or the length (L3) between an inner surface (13b) of the second window and the detector or, respectively, detectors are constituted over substantially all other sections of the radiation path, except those in alignment with possible accessories, by a solid material (7) transmissive to the applied radiation wavelengths. This material is preferably homogeneous at least in the direction transverse to a main radiating direction (R).
摘要:
A method and an arrangement in connection with vaporizing an anaesthetic, in which an anaesthetic, vaporized in a vaporizer is mixed with fresh gas and delivered to be inhaled by a patient. In order to achieve a reliable operation, the prevailing ambient air pressure is measured, the measured air pressure is compared with a reference pressure and when the prevailing ambient air pressure deviates from the reference pressure, the anaesthetic agent concentration of the fresh gas/anaesthetic mixture to be passed to the patient is adjusted in relation to the variation in the ambient external air pressure.

An arrangement in connection with an anaesthetic, liquid container, said arrangement comprising a device for conducting anaesthetic liquid during emptying of the anaesthetic liquid container from the anaesthetic liquid container to a transport or supply container connected to a filling port of the anaesthetic liquid container, and vice versa during the filling of the anaesthetic liquid container, and a device for removing a volume of gas equivalent to the volume of anaesthetic liquid during emptying of the anaesthetic liquid container from the transport or supply container and during filling correspondingly from the anaesthetic liquid container. To allow the anaesthetic liquid container to be emptied effectively, an intermediate container which is provided in connection with the anaesthetic liquid container and formed from a curved tubular portion and which during the filling of the anaesthetic liquid container forms a common conduit for the anaesthetic liquid and the gas removed from the liquid container is adapted during the emptying of the anaesthetic liquid container to form a conduit at least for the anaesthetic liquid discharged from the anaesthetic liquid container.
