More Information
Summary:A medical device ( 103 ) is supplied ( 105 ) with a gas mixture from a higher pressure section of a main circuit ( 102 ) in which medical gas recirculates though the higher pressure section and a lower pressure section. Decontaminated spent gas is returned to the lower pressure section of the main circuit Pressure in the higher pressure section is maintained by a pressure maintaining valve ( 141 ) and gas flow in the main circuit is maintained by a volume regulator ( 145 ) in the lower pressure section. The composition of the recirculating gas mixture is maintained by addition of respective feed gases in response to concentration and/or volume variation measurement. The method has particular application to the feed of a binary oxygen/xenon mixture to a cardiopulmonary bypass oxygenator or an artificial ventilator.
