GUIDA GAS
Medical Gas Supply and Mixed Gas
Medical gas mixing station: In large medical institutions, equipment such as nitrogen generators, oxygen generators, and air compressors together form a medical gas mixing station, which precisely regulates the ratio of output nitrogen, oxygen, and other gases to meet the needs of different departments for mixed gases. For example, in anesthesia, customized anesthesia gas mixtures can be provided based on different surgical types and patient conditions.
Ventilator calibration: In the treatment of respiratory system diseases, ventilators are commonly used medical equipment. Standard gases can be used for the calibration of ventilators to ensure that parameters such as the ratio, flow rate, and pressure of oxygen and air provided by the ventilator meet treatment requirements.
Medical Equipment and Surgical Support
Maintenance of high-precision surgical instruments: Precision surgical instruments such as laparoscopy and arthroscopy require strict disinfection and drying before and after use. The dry nitrogen gas provided by the nitrogen generator is used for blowing inside the surgical instruments, quickly removing moisture, reducing bacterial growth, and ensuring the sterility and functional integrity of the surgical instruments.
Low temperature preservation of biological sample banks: In biological sample banks or sperm banks, deep low-temperature refrigerators use liquid nitrogen as a coolant to maintain long-term stable preservation of samples in ultra-low temperature conditions. The liquid nitrogen tank is connected to the nitrogen generator cooling system to continuously replenish the liquid nitrogen lost due to evaporation, ensuring the safety and continuous operation of the sample library.
Proton therapy in tumor treatment: High purity nitrogen is used to cool the magnet system of the proton accelerator, ensuring stable operation of the equipment and precise control of the proton beam direction, thereby accurately striking tumor cells and reducing damage to surrounding healthy tissues.
Medical Environment Control and Treatment
Environmental control in operating rooms and intensive care units (ICU): Nitrogen can be used to maintain a specific gas environment, reduce oxygen concentration in the air, lower the risk of fire, and help maintain the sterility of surgical instruments.
Respiratory therapy equipment: For patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or other respiratory disorders, some respiratory therapy equipment uses a mixture of oxygen and helium gas to assist patients in breathing, reduce breathing difficulties, and improve quality of life by precisely controlling the gas ratio.
The Future Development Trend of Medical Gases
Technological innovation and upgrading: With the continuous progress and innovation of medical technology, there will be more technological innovations and upgrades in the preparation, storage, transportation, and application of medical gases. For example, new gas separation technologies, gas storage and transportation technologies will continue to emerge, providing more efficient, safe, and reliable solutions for the application of medical gases.
Market demand and growth: With the continuous development of the global healthcare industry and the increasing trend of aging population, the market demand for medical gases will continue to grow. Especially in some developing countries and regions, with the improvement of medical level and the popularization of medical services, the market demand for medical gases will become more vigorous.
Policy, regulation and standard formulation: In order to ensure the quality and safe use of medical gases, governments and relevant institutions of various countries will continuously strengthen the formulation and implementation of policies and regulations. At the same time, it will also promote the development and improvement of medical gas related standards, providing more standardized and scientific guidance for the application of medical gases.
The application of medical gases in the field of biomedicine is very extensive and in-depth, covering multiple aspects from basic gas supply to cutting-edge medical technology support. In the future, with the continuous advancement and innovation of medical technology and the sustained growth of market demand, the application prospects of the gas industry will be even broader.
