The invention relates to patient breathing circuit for use in anaesthesia or respiratory care, the patient circuit comprising a gas source for creating gas mixture for patient breathing and circulating arrangement for delivering the gas mixture to the patient. The circulating arrangement comprising inspiration (9) and expiration tubes (8) through which gases flow to the patient and from the patient, the inspiration and expiration tubes (8,9) having machine ends and patient ends and the tubes (8,9) being provided with a Y-piece (12) at the patient end of the tubes enabling the flow of gases from the inspiration tube (9) to the patient (1) and from the patient (1) to the expiration tube (8). The Y-piece (12) is provided with a flow measuring sensor (2) having pressure lines (3) connected to the measuring device. The pressure lines (3) are arranged to run inside of an outer wall surface of the flow measuring sensor (2). |
