What is compressed air medical use

Compressed air is widely used in the medical field and is specifically used in the following aspects:

1. Life support system

  1. Ventrim: Compressed air is an important source of power for ventilators, used to drive ventilators to generate airflow and help patients breathe. Especially in intensive care units (ICUs) and rescue rooms, ventilators have extremely high requirements for the stability and reliability of compressed air.
  2. Anesthesia machine: During the operation, the anesthesia machine requires stable compressed air to drive the delivery system of anesthetic drugs to ensure the stability of the anesthesia process and the safety of the patient.
  3. Premium Baby Insulation Box: In the insulator, compressed air is used to adjust the oxygen concentration to provide a suitable artificial respiration environment for premature babies.

2. Power source of medical equipment

  1. Surgery instruments: such as scalpels, suture guns, etc. These instruments require stable compressed air to drive their work to ensure the smooth progress of the surgical process.
  2. Dental Equipment: Such as dental chairs, dental drills, etc. Dental Equipment uses compressed air to generate power for oral cleaning, treatment and other operations.
  3. Other medical equipment: such as suction devices, infusion pumps, etc. These equipment also often use compressed air as a power source.

III. Medical Environment Support

  1. Pharmaceutical Preparation Filling: In some sprays, powder drugs and aerosol drugs, compressed air can serve as a filling medium to help the drug be better dispersed and released.
  2. Laboratory Instrument Cleaning: Compressed air is a commonly used cleaning tool used to purify containers and equipment to remove residues and impurities from it.
  3. Surgery Operation Assistance: During the surgery, compressed air can be used to blow open the skin, tissues and organs so that the surgeon can better observe and operate.
  4. Medical Device Dry: Use compressed air to quickly rinse and dry medical devices, shorten cleaning time and improve work efficiency.
  5. Sterilization and Deodorization: Compressed air can be used to sterilize and remove odors from medical devices and medicines, ensuring patient safety and product quality.

4. Medical Gas Synthesis

Compressed air can be used to produce other medical gases, such as oxygen, liquid nitrogen, etc. These gases have wide applications in the medical process.

5. Medical facilities support

  1. Patient transportation: In some medical facilities, compressed air can be used to push equipment such as wheelchairs and hospital beds to facilitate patients’ movement and transportation.
  2. Environmental Creation: In some medical facilities, compressed air can be used to create a more comfortable environment, such as providing patients with music or fragrance.

6. Medical safety and quality assurance

Medical compressed air systems usually have strict quality monitoring and control systems to ensure that the cleanliness, humidity, oil content and other indicators of compressed air meet medical standards, thereby ensuring the safety and treatment quality of patients.

In summary, the application of compressed air in the medical field covers multiple aspects such as life support systems, medical equipment power sources, medical environment support, medical gas synthesis, medical facility support, and medical safety and quality assurance, providing important support for the efficient, safe and smooth progress of the medical process.
