Injector

Air

Some ventilators use a device called an injector (Venturi mechanism) to increase the flow of driving gas. As the gas flow meets restriction, its lateral pressure drops (Bernoulli principle). Air will be entrained when the lateral pressure drops below atmospheric. The end result is an increase in the total gas flow leaving the outlet of the injector but no increase in consumption of driving gas

Fresh Gas Decoupling (FGD)

74

Circle system with piston ventilator and fresh gas decoupling (FGD)(Dräger Narkomed 6000)

Fresh Gas Decoupling (FGD)

During the I phase the FG coming from the AWS through the fresh gas inlet is diverted into a separate reservoir by a “decoupling valve” (located between the fresh gas source & the circle BS). In the case of the NM 6000 series, the reservoir bag serves as an accumulator for FG storage until the E phase begins.

75 Raafat Abdel-Azim

Raafat Abdel-Azim

During the E phase, the decoupling valve opens, allowing the accumulated FG in the reservoir bag to be drawn into the circle system to refill the piston ventilator chamber. Because the ventilator exhaust valve also opens during the E phase, excess FG & exhaled patient gases are vented into the scavenging system

NPR valve = negative pressure relief valve

76

Raafat Abdel-Azim

• Most FGD systems are designed with either piston-type or descending bellows-type ventilators.

• Because the ventilator piston unit or bellows in either of these type systems refills under slight negative pressure, it allows the accumulated fresh gas from the reservoir to be drawn into the breathing circuit for delivery to the patient during the next ventilator cycle.

• As a result of this design requirement, it is not possible for FGD to be used with conventional ascending bellows ventilators, which refill under slight +ve pressure

77

Raafat Abdel-Azim

Advantage of FGD

risk of barotrauma & volutrauma

With a traditional circle system, in FGF from the flow meters, or from inappropriate activation of the oxygen flush valve, may contribute directly to VT excessive FG pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, other serious patient injury, or even death.

Because systems with FGD isolate the patient from FG coming into the system while the ventilator is in I phase, delivered VT tends to remain stable over a broad range of FGF rates, and the potential risk of barotrauma to the patient is greatly reduced.

78

Raafat Abdel-Azim

Disadvantages of FGD

1. The possibility of entraining room air into the patient gas circuit

• In a FGD system, the ventilator piston unit (or descending bellows) refills under slight -ve pressure. If the total volume of gas contained in the reservoir bag + that returning as exhaled gas from the patient’s lungs is inadequate to refill the ventilator piston unit, -ve patient Paw could develop.

• To prevent this, a negative pressure relief valve is placed in the FGD BS. If BS P < a preset threshold value, then the relief valve opens and ambient air is allowed to enter into the patient gas circuit.

• If this goes undetected, the entrained atmospheric gases could lead to dilution of either or both the inhaled anesthetic agent(s) or an enriched oxygen mixture (lowering an enriched oxygen concentration toward 21%).

• If allowed to continue, this could lead to intraoperative awareness and/or hypoxia.

• High-priority alarms with both audible and visual alerts should notify the user that fresh gas flow is inadequate and room air is being entrained.

79

Raafat Abdel-Azim

2. If the reservoir bag is removed during mechanical ventilation, or if it develops a significant leak (from poor fit on the bag mount or a bag perforation), room air may enter the breathing circuit as the ventilator piston unit refills during the expiratory phase.

This could also result in dilution of either the inhaled anesthetic agent(s) concentration and/or the enriched oxygen mixture. This type of a disruption could lead to significant pollution of the operating room with anesthetic escaping into the atmosphere.

Summary of important pointsSummary of important points

Raafat Abdel-Azim

•Driving gas and patient gas don’t mix•The ventilation cycle is controlled by F, V, P and T•During the I phase, Paw depends on R and CT

•Goals of MV are to provide adequate VM (necessary to maintain

the desired PaCO2) and to side effects•Modern AV provide a range of ventilatory modes•The difference between the delivered VT and the preset VT depends on CC and FGF•FGD decreases the risk of barotrauma and volutrauma•Hazards of MV can be avoided

Examples of questions to assess the ILOsExamples of questions to assess the ILOs

Raafat Abdel-Azim

•Describe causes and ventilatory management of high airway pressure during inspiratory phase of mechanical ventilation•Discuss goals of pulmonary ventilation under anesthesia•With IPPV: if f (rate) = 10/min, I: E= 1:1 and FGF= 3 LPMWhat will be the volume added to the preset tidal volume?
