Carefusion 10855-855 - Adult Respiratory Circuit 8 ft, Patient Valve, Disposable, Latex-Free, 20 EA/CS
The Carefusion 10855-855 Adult Respiratory Circuit is a high-quality, single-use breathing circuit designed for adult patients in need of mechanical ventilation or respiratory support. Measuring 8 feet in length, it provides enhanced flexibility and reach, supporting optimal equipment setup and patient mobility within the clinical environment.
This circuit includes an integrated patient valve (PV) to ensure accurate one-way airflow during inhalation and exhalation, which is essential for consistent ventilation performance. Manufactured from durable, medical-grade materials, it is latex-free and designed to meet the demands of intensive care units, surgical suites, emergency departments, and respiratory therapy units.
Key Benefits:
Integrated Patient Valve (PV): Delivers precise directional airflow and promotes safe ventilation cycles.
Extended 8 ft Tubing: Offers superior flexibility and positioning options without kinking or pulling.
Ready-to-Use Design: Preassembled for quick connection, reducing setup time in urgent care scenarios.
Latex-Free and DEHP-Free: Enhances patient safety by minimizing exposure to allergens and harmful plasticizers.
Single-Use and Disposable: Supports infection control by eliminating the risk of cross-contamination.
Compatibility and Applications:
This adult respiratory circuit is compatible with most standard mechanical ventilators, transport ventilators, and anesthesia machines that accept universal 22 mm fittings. It is ideal for use in:
Intensive care units (ICUs)
Post-anesthesia care units (PACUs)
Emergency medical services (EMS)
Surgical operating rooms
Respiratory care departments
Usage Guidelines:
Before use, inspect the packaging to ensure it is intact. Attach the circuit to the ventilator and patient interface using standard connections. Confirm secure attachment and check for unrestricted airflow throughout the circuit. Do not reuse. Dispose of the circuit after a single patient use according to facility protocols for medical waste.
Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals:
FDA Registered Medical Device: Complies with regulatory safety and performance standards.
ISO 13485 Certified Manufacturing: Ensures consistent product quality and medical-grade reliability.
Latex-Free and DEHP-Free: Safe for sensitive patients and meets current health guidelines.
Meets ANSI/AAMI Standards: Aligns with industry requirements for respiratory therapy equipment.
Comparison with Competitor Products:
The Carefusion 10855-855 distinguishes itself from generic adult breathing circuits by combining a longer 8-foot length with an integrated patient valve, enhancing clinical performance and ease of use.
