Spontaneous Breathing: Expiration
During expiration, the inspiratory valve
1
remains closed thus preventing the
expiratory gas from flowing back into the inspiratory branch.
The APL valve
2
is open, irrespective of its pressure setting.
The expiratory gas flows from the lung
3
through the expiratory hose
4
, the flow
sensor
5
, the PEEP control valve
6
, the expiratory valve
7
, and through the absorber
8
into the breathing bag
9
. At the same time, new fresh gas flows into the breathing bag.
When the breathing bag is full, any excess gas mixture flows through the non-return
valve
10
into the anesthetic gas scavenging system.

The CO

is scrubbed from the expiratory gas by the soda lime contained in the
absorber
8
. The fresh gas replaces the anesthetic and oxygen taken up by the
patient.
