Carefusion RT509-852 - Dual Heated Pediatric Respiratory Circuit Pressure-Controlled Ventilation, High-Performance, Heated Dual Limb, 20/CS

Carefusion RT509-852 - Dual Heated Pediatric Respiratory Circuit Pressure-Controlled Ventilation, High-Performance, Heated Dual Limb, 20/CS

The Carefusion RT509-852 is a Pediatric Dual Heated Respiratory Circuit, specially engineered for pressure-controlled ventilation in young patients. Featuring two heated limbs, this circuit maintains optimal gas humidity and temperature, supporting lung protection and respiratory efficiency in pediatric ventilation. The dual-heated design ensures balanced inspiratory and expiratory flow, making it ideal for intensive care applications where precise respiratory support is critical.

Built for compatibility with modern ventilators, this disposable circuit is designed for single-patient use and complies with strict infection control protocols, delivering both safety and comfort for the most vulnerable patient population.

Key Benefits

• Dual Heated Limbs: Actively warms and humidifies both inspiratory and expiratory gases to prevent airway drying and improve secretion mobility.

• Pediatric-Specific Design: Tailored to match the smaller anatomical and physiological requirements of infants and children.

• Pressure Support Ready: Optimized for pressure-controlled ventilation systems in acute care environments.

• Disposable and Sterile: Minimizes contamination risk and aligns with best practices for infection prevention.

• Improved Clinical Outcomes: Reduces airway inflammation, enhances gas exchange, and supports better patient comfort during ventilation.

Compatibility and Applications
Compatible with:

• Leading pediatric ventilators (e.g., Carefusion, Drger, Hamilton)

• Heated humidification systems (e.g., Fisher & Paykel, Carefusion humidifiers)

• Pressure-controlled ventilation modes

Used in:

• Pediatric and neonatal intensive care units (PICU/NICU)

• Pediatric surgical recovery rooms

• Emergency pediatric respiratory interventions

• Transport ventilators (when compatible with heated dual-limb systems)

Usage Guidelines

• Connect the inspiratory and expiratory limbs to the appropriate ventilator ports.

• Attach to a compatible humidifier and ensure water levels are adequate.

• Secure the patient interface (mask or endotracheal tube) and verify temperature settings.

• Monitor for circuit condensation and flow resistance during extended use.

• Dispose after single-patient use per infection control protocols.
