Abstract

Fluorinated hydrocarbons have transformed inhalational anaesthesia, and vaporizers are essential for safe and accurate delivery of these agents. The modern-day vaporizers have evolved considerably since the ether inhaler invented by John Snow in 1847 and are robust, precise and efficient. For an anaesthetist to administer safe inhalational anaesthetic, it is important to understand the physical principles of the various inhalational anaesthetic agents along with the working principles of the vaporizers. Almost all modern vaporizers are located outside the circle system and the have multiple safety mechanisms in place.

麻醉汽化器的原理

氟化碳氢化合物已经改变了吸入麻醉，对于安全准确地输送这些药物，蒸发器是必不可少的。自1847年约翰·斯诺（John Snow）发明乙醚吸入器以来，现代汽化器已经有了很大的发展，坚固、精确和高效。麻醉师要使用安全的吸入麻醉剂，了解各种吸入麻醉剂的物理原理以及汽化器的工作原理是很重要的。几乎所有现代汽化器都位于循环系统之外，并且有多个安全机制。
