The Gas Sampling Line (p/n 90031) delivers a gas sample of the ventilator gas flow to the monitoring system in the LungFit PH. The gas sampling line has a male Luer lock connector at each end that is attached at one end to the inspiratory limb of the ventilator breathing circuit via the sample T adaptor (with a female Luer lock connector), near the patient connection and to the LungFit PH System female Leur Lock connector gas sampling port at the other end. The gas sample line is composed of a 12 inch length of Nafion tubing for removing moisture from the sample gas, a gas sample tube with Leur fittings and a hydrophobic filter to prevent any remaining water in the sample gas from entering the LungFit PH.
An assembly of devices dedicated to the short-term delivery of precise amounts of nitric oxide (NO), also known as nitrogen monoxide, to the respiratory tract of patients for the treatment of severe respiratory failure, particularly when a primary delivery system cannot be used (functions as a backup system). It typically includes a computerized main unit that delivers NO to gases that are to be breathed by the patient via a ventilator or other respiratory device/system and which also monitors this gaseous mixture, and tubing.
