Effects of the reservoir bag disconnection on inspired gases during general anesthesia: a simulator-based study

Abstract Background Fresh gas decoupling is a feature of the modern anesthesia workstation, where the fresh gas flow (FGF) is diverted into the reservoir bag and is not added to the delivered tidal volume, which thus remains constant. The present study aimed to investigate the entraining of the atmo...
