Accurately monitor circuit pressure by using the manometer with your circuits and Ayres T.
The In-Circuit Patient Pressure Manometer is a safe way to accurately monitor the pressure in non-rebreathing circuits when delivering positive pressure ventilation. These manometers can also be used in circle circuits where it is not a built-in feature. The use of a manometer prevents iatrogenic barotrauma to the patient while still ensuring adequate pressures are reached for optimal ventilation.
The In-Circuit Patient Pressure Manometers have a standard 22mm connector that can be used on all circuit types. There is an adaptor for use with a T-Piece circuit which has 15mm tubing.
Measurements are in cmH2O
Colour-coded range of 0-60cmH2O
Can be attached to all non-rebreathing and circle circuits
Many different attachment locations: common gas outlet, reservoir bag, on the inspiratory or expiratory port in a circle circuit or at the connection of the circuit tubing and the endotracheal tube (note - this will add to apparatus dead space)
