RESPIRATION INSERT FOR INDUCTION MASK

摘要

A respiration insert includes a first portion sized to insert within an aperture of an induction mask formerly occupied by an anesthesia circuit. The respiration insert further includes a second portion coupled to the first portion and defining ports in fluid communication with a channel defined by the first portion. The ports may be embodied as tube stubs and may include an attachment interface for coupling to a CO2 monitoring system. A flange extends outwardly from the respiration insert and defines slots for receiving straps used to secure the respiration insert and induction mask to the head of a patient.
