| Abstract | Nowadays, the breathing system in most of the anesthetic machine is "circle system" type which the unidirectional flow in the system passes through carbon dioxide absorbent; to prevent carbon dioxide from re-breathing in the next inhalation. Hence, the lower flow anesthetic is used, the higher quality of carbon dioxide absorbent is required. However, there have been several problems reported which are related to carbon dioxide absorbent such as heat generation in anesthetic circuit, melting of the absorbent cartridge, multiple sparking in the absorbent canister, re-breathing, air flow leakage in the circuit and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Therefore, knowing how to safely use each type of carbon dioxide absorbent is utterly important. The objective of this article is to compile the knowledge of chemical structure, risk versus benefit of each type of carbon dioxide absorbent, caution and problem during using carbon dioxide absorbent. |
