Carefusion 1212-H11 - Pediatric Respiratory Circuit, 4', Dual-Heated Precision-Controlled Ventilation Support for Pediatric Patients, 20 EA/CS
The Carefusion 1212-H11 is a high-quality, 4-foot dual-heated respiratory circuit specifically designed for pediatric patients requiring mechanical ventilation. Tailored for use with heated humidification systems, this dual-heated design ensures consistent temperature and humidity levels from the humidifier to the patient, helping to preserve mucosal integrity and prevent airway desiccation.
Constructed from durable, medical-grade materials, the circuit features dual-heating wires (in both inspiratory and expiratory limbs) to reduce condensate buildup and deliver optimally humidified air throughout the breathing cycle. Its compact 4-foot length is ideal for pediatric applications, minimizing dead space while supporting efficient respiratory therapy.
Key Benefits
Pediatric-Specific Design: Optimized 4' length reduces circuit volume and supports safe and effective ventilation in smaller patients.
Dual-Heated Technology: Maintains consistent temperature across both inspiratory and expiratory limbs, minimizing rainout and enhancing patient comfort.
Optimal Humidification: Protects delicate pediatric airways by delivering humidified gas, improving secretion clearance and respiratory function.
Sterile and Single-Use: Designed for one-time use to minimize cross-contamination risks and maintain clinical hygiene.
Flexible and Durable: Lightweight tubing allows for ease of movement without compromising structural integrity or performance.
Compatibility and Applications
The 1212-H11 respiratory circuit is compatible with a range of ventilators and heated humidifiers commonly used in pediatric intensive care units and neonatal care settings. Suitable environments include:
Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICUs)
Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs)
Pediatric operating rooms
Long-term pediatric ventilation care settings
Emergency pediatric respiratory support
Usage Guidelines
Remove from sterile packaging immediately before use.
Connect the inspiratory and expiratory limbs to the appropriate ventilator ports and heated humidifier.
Ensure heating wire connectors are correctly plugged into the control module to activate temperature regulation.
Monitor for condensation or flow resistance; replace as per facility policy or if circuit integrity is compromised.
Dispose of after single-patient use.

Superior humidification and temperature control
Reduced secretion buildup and condensation
Improved clinical outcomes in pediatric ventilation
Its compact length and specialized design give it an edge over generic adult-oriented circuits adapted for pediatric use.
Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
Common users include:
Pediatric respiratory therapists
Pediatric intensivists and anesthesiologists
NICU and PICU nurses
Emergency care clinicians
It is used in both acute and chronic pediatric respiratory care, including intraoperative ventilation, post-op recovery, and long-term respiratory support.
Best Practices for Use and Maintenance
Always verify heating wire connections to avoid temperature loss.
Use sterile water with the humidifier to prevent mineral buildup.
Replace the circuit per shift or institutional infection control protocols.
Store in a clean, dry environment and inspect packaging before use.
Proper use and monitoring ensure optimal performance and patient safety.
Regulatory and Safety Information
The 1212-H11 is labeled for single-patient use and is not intended for cleaning or reuse. Its construction meets international safety and sterility standards and is compliant with all relevant pediatric care protocols and humidification guidelines.
