Background and Identification
The Datex-Ohmeda Avance and Avance CS anesthesia machines are intended to provide general inhalation anesthesia and ventilatory support to a wide range of patients (neonatal, pediatric, adult). They represent one of the systems in a long line of products based on the Datex-Ohmeda Excel, Aestiva, and Aespire Anesthesia Systems. Avance systems are to be used only by trained and qualified medical professionals trained in the administration of general anesthesia.
The Avance anesthesia systems supply set flows of medical gases to the breathing system using electronic gas mixing. Gas flows are selected by the user using the electronic controls on the main display unit and then displayed as electronic flow meters on the system display unit. The Avance systems are equipped with a pneumatic back-up 02 delivery system and traditional flow tube, as well.
