RESUMO
The Oxyvent is an anaesthetic machine designed specifically for use in the developing world and difficult situations. It is made up of four components, each of which has, in its own right, already proved to be of great value in difficult situations. These are the drawover system, the Penlon Manley Multivent Ventilator, the DeVilbiss Oxygen Concentrator and the air compressor. The four components are mounted on a simple trolley carrying two oxygen cylinders. The Oxyvent can be used to provide anaesthesia in the absence of electricity or oxygen or both. It is simple, robust and easily serviceable. It is versatile and can be used both as an anaesthetic machine in the operating theatre and as a ventilator in an intensive care unit.
