Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo develop a portable field anesthesia machine system suitable for the medical first-aid on the spot.
METHODSThe three-dimensional structure of PFAM was designed with modeling software of Pro/E and manufactured according to the GB9706.29 and other national standards.
RESULTDue to its small footprint and very light weight, PFAM is completely portable and convenient on different occasions within or outside a hospital environment. It can support breathing of patients and delivery anesthetic gas, fitted for both adult and children patients. All of the safety alarm systems required are employed on board.
CONCLUSIONPFAM may play an important role in the first-aid in the field or outside the hospital.
