Abstract

A device for adsorbing and desorbing anesthetic shall be improved in respect of the anesthetic supply. A sampling device ( 16 ) for removing a gas volume of the breathing gas and an anesthetic dispenser ( 18 ) are connected to the breathing gas line ( 8 ) between the adsorption filter ( 9 ) and the patient ( 10 ) in such a way that the gas volume removed and the gas volume supplied are compensated.

Claims (28)

1. A device for supplying a patient with breathing gas, the device comprising:

a filter device for the adsorption and desorption of anesthetic;

a breathing gas line between said filter device and the patient;

a sampling device connected to said breathing gas line for sampling breathing gas to provide a removed gas volume;

an anesthetic dispensing device connected to said breathing gas line to provide a compensation between the removed gas volume and a gas volume fed in the device; and

a sampling pump connected to said sampling device and feeding said removed gas volume to said anesthetic dispensing device and feeding the removed gas volume with anesthetic to said breathing gas line as a gas volume fed into said breathing gas line for generating a compensation between said removed gas volume and the gas volume fed into said breathing gas line.

2. A device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said sampling device comprises an anesthetic measuring device.

3. A device in accordance with claim 1 , further comprising a gas analysis port for gas sampling for said sampling device, said gas analysis port being arranged between a connecting branch to an anesthetic supply of said anesthetic dispensing device and the patient.

4. A device in accordance with claim 1 , further comprising a gas analysis port for gas sampling for said sampling device, said gas analysis port being provided between a connecting branch to an anesthetic supply of said anesthetic dispensing device and said filter device.

5. A device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said sampling device comprises a breathing gas source for said anesthetic dispensing device.

6. A device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said breathing gas line comprises separate line sections for the gas to be inspired and gas to be expired.

7. A device according to claim 1 , wherein:

said breathing gas line between said filter device and the patient includes a first channel section through which predominantly gas to be inspired flows and a second channel section for expired gas; and

said anesthetic dispensing device is connected to said second channel section to feed said gas volume fed into the breathing gas line to said second channel section.

8. A breathing system for supplying a patient with breathing gas, the system comprising:

a respirator connected to a breathing gas source;

a filter device for the adsorption and desorption of anesthetic, said filter device being connected to said respirator;

a breathing gas line between said filter device and the patient;

a sampling device connected to said breathing gas line for sampling breathing gas to remove a gas volume;

an anesthetic dispensing device connected to said breathing gas line; and

a sampling pump connected to said sampling device and feeding said removed gas volume to said anesthetic dispensing device and feeding the removed gas volume, enriched with anesthetic, into said breathing gas line for generating a compensation between said removed gas volume and a gas volume fed into said breathing gas line.

9. A system in accordance with claim 8 , wherein said sampling device comprises an anesthetic measuring device.

10. A system in accordance with claim 8 , further comprising a gas analysis port for connection of said sampling device for gas sampling, said gas analysis port being arranged between a connecting branch to an anesthetic supply of said anesthetic dispensing device and the patient.

11. A system in accordance with claim 8 , further comprising a gas analysis port for connection of said sampling device for gas sampling, said gas analysis port being provided between a connecting branch to an anesthetic supply of said anesthetic dispensing device and said filter device.

12. A system in accordance with claim 8 , wherein said sampling device comprises a breathing gas source for said anesthetic dispensing device.

13. A system in accordance with claim 8 , wherein said breathing gas line comprises separate line sections for the gas to be inspired and gas to be expired.

14. A system according to claim 13 , wherein:

said anesthetic dispensing device is connected to said separate line section for the gas to be expired and said gas volume fed into the breathing gas line is fed to said separate line section for the gas to be expired.
