1. Critical Care Ventilation Technology Perspective Fran Hegarty

2. Atoms and Molecules are connected together. The connections are the attraction of molecules to each other.

3. Atoms and Molecules are connected together. The connections are the attraction of molecules to each other. As molecules get more energy (temperature) they tend to become less bound by the attraction between them, and the properties of the matter change.

4. Molecules have: Low Energy Low Temperature. Molecules held in place by attraction to each other. Solid.

5. Molecules have: Some Energy Higher Temperature. Molecules held in place by attraction to each other but have enough energy to move relative to each other. Liquid

6. Molecules have: Lots of Energy Higher Temperature. Molecules no longer held in place by attraction to each other but move freely relative to each other. Gas

7. Molecules have: Lots of Energy Higher Temperature. Molecules no longer held in place by attraction to each other but move freely relative to each other. Gas

8. Properties of Gases.

9. Gases. Volume = Defined Space i.e. 1 Litre. If it is empty i.e. contains no matter of any kind its called a vacuum.

10. Gases. A gas will expand to fill the volume which contains it.

11. Gases. A gas will expand to fill the volume which contains it. As it does so it becomes less dense.

12. Gases. 1 Litre of Oxygen (low density) 1 Litre of Oxygen (high density)

13. So how do you know how much gas is in a one litre volume ?

14. To answer that we need to know more about Gas Pressure.

15. Gases. The gas molecules are in constant motion, and so they regularly hit the walls of the container.

16. Gases. The force of the gas molecules hitting the walls of the container is called the Gas Pressure.

17. Gases. The more gas molecules there are, the more often the walls of the container are hit, therefore the Gas Pressure is higher.

18. Gases. If the temperature (energy) of the gas is increased the molecules move faster and so hit the walls harder causing the Gas Pressure to rise also.

19. Gases. The effect of the expected variations in room temperature have very little effect on medical gas pressure (so we will ignore this effect).

20. Gases. Volume = 1 Pressure = 1 Volume = 1 Pressure = 2 The amount of Gas Molecules in a volume is given by the Volume x Gas pressure.

21. Volume = 1 Pressure = 2 What would happen if we suddenly doubled the size of the container ?

22. Volume = 1 Pressure = 2 What would happen if we suddenly doubled the size of the container ? Volume = 2 Pressure = ? Remember there are the same number of molecules in each.

23. Gas expands to fill the volume. Density of gas falls. Force per unit ares due to gas hitting the walls falls. Pressure falls. Volume = 2 Pressure = 1 Volume = 1 Pressure = 2

24. Volume = 0.5 Pressure = 4 Volume = 2 Pressure = 1 V x P = 2 Volume = 1 Pressure = 2

25. How come we never talk about the pressure when deciding how much gas is to be delivered to the patient ? To answer that we need to know more about Atmospheric Pressure.

26. Space is a vacuum. Atmosphere is a gas (Air). Air molecules hit the surface of the earth.

27. Atmospheric Pressure Pressure of the Air molecules hitting the earth. (or any other surface in the atmosphere). 14 lbs. per square inch

28. We are so use to Atmospheric Pressure that we forget its there.

29. So, when we say we want to give a patient “a tidal volume of half a litre of air” …….we realy mean…. “ a tidal volume of half a litre of air at atmospheric pressure”.

30. How do you make a gas move or flow.

34. Gases flow from areas of high pressure, to areas of low pressure.
