New Anesthesia Machine

Our new anesthesia machine finally arrived last week. The equipment has been assembled and tested and we had the opportunity to use it for the first time this morning. One of the many safety features of this machine is what is known as a "circuit alarm". If an abnormal level of pressure builds up within the breathing tubes, a high pitched alarm will sound and alert us to the problem which can then be immediately corrected.
