How the device functions:
NOTE:
The components in the medical gas path and the nasal cannula are considered applied parts.
Technical Description
:
Principles of dosing, timing, triggering and settings:
The
Bonsai
includes a combination of a low-pressure regulator and an oxygen conserver
.
It is designed for use with a
cylinder as an ambulatory oxygen system and is capable of delivering a precise amount of supplemental oxygen at the
optimal point in the breathing cycle
.
The
Bonsai
greatly increases the efficiency in the delivery of oxygen, maximizing
the
beneficial effects and eliminating unnecessary oxygen waste
.
The
Bonsai
is desi
gned to sense the precise moment in the
patient's breathing cycle when it has to deliver the oxygen pulse. It accomplishes its intended purpose by providing
supplemental oxygen to a patient requiring nasaloxygen therapy in a manner that yields a high level of efficiency in the
consumption of the oxygen administered. The
Bonsai
's responsive and rapid oxygen delivery time increases the oxygen
concentration provided to the patient, thus increasing the ability to better maintain patient saturation levels.
The
Bonsai
delivers a uniform oxygen pulse which ensures that
,
if you breathe faster, you will still receive the same
amount of oxygen
with each breath.
The device is pneumatically powered using springs and mechanical
components
.
A
pulse dose of oxygen is triggered by sensing a
pressure drop at the beginning of inhalation and is timed to deliver the
dose
within the first half of the inhal
ation.
A setting of 1 produces the smallest dose
,
and a setting of
6 produces
the largest
dose
.
The cf2
setting produces continuous flow of 2 liters
per minute
.
The cf4 setting produces continuous flow
of 4 liters per minute.
