DEVICE: Evita VPack invasive (04048675421146)

A device intended to be placed within a breathing circuit proximal to the patient, to remove and retain microbes whilst capturing the patient's exhaled heat and moisture so that they can be used to heat and humidify the therapeutic gases inspired by the patient. It is typically a plastic housing which contains both a bidirectional microbial filter, intended to reduce the risk of cross-contamination between patients, and a heat/moisture exchanger (HME), intended to maintain the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract. It is typically used during anaesthesia or periods of prolonged respiratory support/therapy. This is a single-use device.

An assembly of devices designed to conduct air or oxygen (O2) enriched gases and additional gases [e.g., nitrous oxide (N2O), halogenated gases] from a ventilator to a patient artificial airway/respiratory mask (not included). It includes breathing tubes, a Y-piece connector, and provides connections for devices that humidify, deliver medication, and monitor gas concentration or pressure within the breathing circuit; some types may include a carbon dioxide cuvette and/or an integrated heating wire powered by a connected humidifier intended to warm breathing gases as they enter the patient's airway. This is a single-use device.

A mains electricity (AC-powered) automatic cycling device intended to provide long-term alveolar ventilation support for the full age-range of patients, from neonatal, paediatric to adult, in a critical care setting. It typically uses positive pressure to deliver gas at normal breathing rates and tidal volumes through an endotracheal (ET) tube or tracheostomy, and consists of a breathing circuit, a control system, monitors, and alarms. The inhalation limb includes sites where inspired gas may be heated/humidified, and the exhalation limb includes an exhaust valve to release gas to the ambient air. It can be operated in several modes (e.g., assist/control, synchronized, patient triggered).

A device intended to create a direct connection between a breathing circuit breathing tube and an endotracheal (ET) tube, anaesthesia face mask, or other non-sampling breathing circuit component. It is constructed with specific connecting dimensions and may be designed to connect breathing tubes from paediatric to adult sizes. It is typically made of plastic materials and can have a straight or elbow-shaped design (excludes Y-piece connectors). Some designs may allow for partial rotation at the point of connection (a swivel) and may include a suction port or gas sampling port. This is a single-use device.
