Carefusion 1852 - HEPA Bacterial Filter High-Efficiency Filtration for Respiratory and Anesthesia Equipment, 20/CA

The Carefusion 1852 HEPA Bacterial Filter is a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter engineered to provide superior protection against airborne contaminants in respiratory and anesthesia circuits. Designed for use with ventilators, humidifiers, and anesthesia machines, this filter captures bacteria, viruses, and particulate matter to reduce the risk of cross-contamination between patients and equipment.

Built from durable, medical-grade materials, the 1852 filter ensures consistent airflow with minimal resistance while maintaining excellent filtration efficiency. It is a critical component in infection control protocols across hospitals and clinical environments.

Key Benefits

• HEPA-Grade Filtration: Removes =99.97% of airborne particles =0.3 microns, including bacteria and viral contaminants.

• Patient and Equipment Protection: Reduces contamination risk in ventilator circuits and anesthesia delivery systems.

• Low Resistance to Flow: Maintains optimal respiratory performance without impeding airflow.

• Versatile Connectivity: Standard ports ensure secure integration into most respiratory and anesthesia systems.

• Single-Use, Sterile Design: Enhances infection control and reduces equipment maintenance requirements.

Compatibility and Applications
The 1852 HEPA filter is compatible with:

• Mechanical ventilators

• Anesthesia machines

• CPAP/BiPAP devices

• Heated humidifiers

• Manual resuscitators (Ambu bags)

Commonly used in:

• Operating rooms and surgical suites

• Intensive Care Units (ICUs)

• Emergency departments

• Isolation rooms and infection control scenarios

• Transport ventilators during patient transfers

Usage Guidelines

• Insert the filter between the patient airway and breathing circuit or between the ventilator and circuit limb, depending on protocol.

• Use in accordance with hospital infection control guidelines and manufacturer recommendations.

• Replace the filter after each patient use or if visible soiling, resistance, or performance degradation is detected.

• Do not attempt to clean or reuse.
