  • Notes supplémentaires dans les données
    According to the company, the client "(...) can continue to use his anesthesia machine. If its practice involves the use of 21% O 2 in the fresh gas, any adjustment of the fresh gas flow rate will produce an inhaled bolus of anesthetic agent. The effect of the bolus on the concentrations of inhaled and expired agents is short-lived. Note the possible effects of elevated anesthetic agent concentration for short periods of time. In the event of the problem described above, the anesthesia device will automatically recover and return to the configured concentration of constant state anesthetic agent without any action of the user. Depending on the system configuration, one or both of these alarms can be activated if this safety problem occurs: • Clinical alarm "Fi XXX High" (XXX indicates the specific agent) • Alarm if respiratory gas monitoring is not present "
  • Cause
    According to the company, "as of december 7, 2015, ge learned of a potential safety problem involving momentary autocorrection of the anesthetic agent bolus when using oxygen at 21% on all updated aisys cs2 and aisys appliances (version 10.X). aisys cs2 and aisys upgraded anesthesia machines can produce a momentary autocorrection of the increase in anesthetic agent, affecting inspiratory and expired concentrations for a short period of time, after one of the following configuration changes: • altering the fresh gas oxygen at 95% -25% for air only (oxygen at 21%). • any change in the total flow while using oxygen at 21% (air only). the occurrence of failure may generate momentary bolus production of anesthetic agent. the bolus will not occur with nitrous oxide as the carrier gas (balance) or when the oxygen concentration is set above 21% (air only). ".
