Term
What is the pumping effect and when is it most pronounced?
Definition

higher concentrations delivered during PPV

 

Most Pronounced When:

less agent in vaporizer

low gas flow

high & rapid Press. changes

low concentration setting

Term
What is the pressurizing effect and when is it most pronounced?
Definition

vaporizer has lower agent concentration output during PPV

 

Most pronounced when:

high gas flow

large pressure changes w/ventilation

low concentration settings

Term
What are two things unique to the tec 6 vaporizer?
Definition

Must have power source

Can fill while it's in use

Term
Hazards of vaporizers
Definition

filled with wrong agent

tipping of vaporizer

overfilling

vaporizer mounted incorrectly

interlock malfunction

vaporizer failure
