The types of medical gases commonly used are as follows: medical oxygen, negative pressure suction, compressed air, nitrogen, nitrous oxide (N2O) and carbon dioxide and other gases.
1.Medical oxygen is mainly used for oxygen inhalation of general patients, oxygen inhalation of critical patients (ventilator) and atomization of drugs.
2.The main purpose of negative pressure suction is to remove phlegm, pus, blood and surgical dirt from the patient.
3.Compressed air is mainly used for oral equipment or as ventilator power (for mixed gas).
4.Nitrogen is used as the power for surgical pneumatic tools to drive medical equipment.
5.Nitrous gas (N2O) is mainly used as an anesthetic gas during surgery.
6.Carbon dioxide is mainly used for inflating the abdominal cavity and for culturing bacteria in the laboratory.
Compared with ordinary air, the difference is that the content of viruses and bacteria in medical air is very low. This is because this air is used in a medical environment, and patients are usually weak and susceptible to viral and bacterial infections. When we entered the hospital, it was not difficult to find that the smell in the hospital had a faint smell of disinfectant. This kind of disinfectant smell is also to eliminate the germs in the air as much as possible through disinfection, so as to prevent the patient from being at risk of infection. Therefore, it is extremely important for medical air. There are many diseases caused by viruses that will greatly reduce the immunity of the sick. If the virus is not well controlled in the air content, it is likely to suffer greater losses.
Medical air is very important. By eliminating viruses in the air, people's lives can be better protected. The biggest difference between medical air and ordinary air is the virus content in the air.
