SYSTEM ZUR ABGABE VON ANÄSTHETIKA

摘要

An anesthetic delivery system has a delivery unit containing a carbon dioxide retaining element and a reversible action anesthetic absorber/desorber for releasably retaining therein at least a portion of a charge of anesthetic agent. An externally accessible first internal flow section in the delivery unit directs gas through the delivery unit first through the anesthetic absorber/desorber and then through the carbon dioxide retaining element, sequentially. An externally accessible second internal flow section directs gas through the delivery unit via the anesthetic absorber/desorber and bypassing the carbon dioxide retaining element.
