Anesthesia Machine And Ventilator

Along with anesthesia machines, new techniques to put multiple patients on single ventilator units have emerged as potential options for hospitals preparing to treat a surge in coronavirus patients with a limited number of ventilators.There are a few different ways to ventilate a patient using an anesthesia machine. One is to use the mechanical ventilator that is built into the machine. Another way is to manually ventilate the patient with the reservoir bag (bagging the patient). Another method is jet ventilation using the machine’s oxygen supply.
