 Store and deliver oxygen to patient, Vaporize liquid anesthetic, Remove exhaled gases | What three of the functions of the Anesthetic Gas Machine? |
| Green | What color is the oxygen tank? |
| Clockwise | Which way do you turn the oxygen tank handle to turn it off? |
| Counter Clockwise | Which way do you turn the oxygen tank handle to turn it on? |
| 2200psi | How much oxygen does each oxygen tank hold? |
| psi X .3 | What is the formula for determining the # of liters of oxygen in the tank? |
| Oxygen Flowmeter | What on the anesthesia machine indicates how many liters per minute of oxygen are flowing to the animal? |
| Blue | What color is the Nitrous Oxide tank? |
| 18# | How much does a full Nitrous Oxide tank weigh? |
| 13# | How much does an empty Nitrous Oxide tank weigh? |
| when psi reads <500 | When should you change the Nitrous Oxide tank? |
| Vaporizer | What measures the % of anesthetic gas mixed with the oxygen as it passes out of it? |
| Direct | Which type of vaporizer is very precise, adjusts for oxygen flow rate, and allows for fewer mistakes? |
| Indirect | Which type of vaporizer is not precise, and can be affected by temperature, and is not safe for the volatile gases? |
| Oxygen Flush Valve | What part of the anesthesia machine allows oxygen to bi-pass the vaporizer without picking up anesthetic gas? |
| Non-rebreathing, Rebreathing | What are the two types of breathing circuits? |
| Non-rebreathing | Which breathing circuit does not allow the animal to rebreathe the gasses? |
| Rebreathing | Which type of breathing circuit gives constant oxygen and anesthetic gas and removes carbon dioxide and recyles exhaled gas? |
| Reservoir bag | Which part of the anesthesia machine holds and stores the gasses and allows the patient to be bagged? |
| Pop-off valve | What part of the anesthesia machine gives relief to the system? |
| Carbon dioxide absorber cannister | What part of the anesthesia machine contains soda lime and removes carbon dioxide from the rebreathing circuit? |
| Moisture Relief Valve | What is on the bottom of the carbon dioxide absorber cannister to release the mositure? |
| Pressure Manometer | What is on top of the CO2 absorber and indicates the pressure in the airways and lungs of the animal? |
| Negative Pressure Valve | What part of the anesthesia machine allows room air into the circuit if the O2 tank is empty or off? |
| Scavenger | What is the tubing which directs waste gasses to the outside? |
