Additional Information for Modified Soda Lime
Modified Soda Lime is a type of absorbent material used in medical, dental, and veterinary equipment to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the breathing gases. It is commonly used in anesthesia machines and respiratory devices.
Modified Soda Lime is a mixture of soda lime, which is a combination of calcium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and water, along with other additives. These additives help enhance the absorption capacity and extend the lifespan of the soda lime.
When a patient breathes out, the exhaled gases pass through the Modified Soda Lime canister, where the CO2 is absorbed. This helps maintain a safe and appropriate level of CO2 in the breathing gases that are delivered back to the patient.
It is important to regularly monitor and replace the Modified Soda Lime canister to ensure its effectiveness. The canister should be replaced according to the manufacturer's guidelines or when it shows signs of exhaustion, such as a change in color or reduced absorption capacity.
Modified Soda Lime is classified as a drug and falls under the supply class Drugs And Biologicals in the supply group Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies. It is an essential component in maintaining the safety and efficiency of anesthesia and respiratory equipment.
