A Plain Breathing Circuit Kit (or plain ventilator/anesthesia circuit) is a disposable, lightweight medical device used to connect a patient to a mechanical ventilator, anesthesia machine, or manual resuscitator bag to deliver oxygen and gases safely.
Key Components & Features
- Corrugated Tubing: Flexible, medical-grade plastic tubing designed to resist kinking and maintain a smooth gas pathway.
