Medical Treatment

Medical gas is mainly used for treatment, anesthesia, driving medical equipment, medical experiments, bacteria, embryo culture. Common gases are: oxygen, nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, argon, helium, nitrogen, compressed air and gas mixtures.

Use of medical gas:

1, oxygen

Oxygen is essential for sustaining life and is used medically to replenish oxygen for patients suffering from hypoxia. Attention oh, directly into the high pure oxygen is harmful to the human body oh, long-term use of oxygen concentration is generally 30%-40%. Oxygen is also used in high pressure chambers to treat diving sickness, gas poisoning and for drug atomization.

2. Nitrous oxide

This gas is also known as laughing gas because it causes muscle spasms in the face after a small amount of inhalation. Medical use of nitrous oxide and oxygen mixed as anesthetic, but general anesthesia is weak. But using nitrous oxide as an anesthetic is only suitable for extraction of teeth, surgical sutures and other minor operations.

3. Carbon dioxide

Medically, carbon dioxide is used to inflate the abdominal cavity and colon for laparoscopy and fibrocolonic examination. In addition, it can be used to grow bacteria in the laboratory. High pressure carbon dioxide can also be used in cryotherapy, used to treat cataracts, vascular diseases and so on.

4, argon gas

In medical treatment, it is mainly used for high-frequency argon knife and other surgical instruments.

5, helium

In the medical application for high frequency helium knife and other medical instruments.

6, nitrogen

Nitrogen is mainly used to drive medical equipment and tools; Liquid nitrogen is commonly used in surgery, gynecology, and stomatology cryotherapy.

7. Compressed air

It is mainly used to transfer power for stomatological instruments, orthopedic instruments, ventilators and so on.

8, xenon

In medical xenon mainly used in gas tube CT machine.

9. Mixture

Carbon dioxide mixed with oxygen or hydrogen is mainly used for anaerobic bacterial culture; Carbon dioxide mixed with argon, mainly used in the cerebral circulatory system; Medical ternary mixture, mainly used in cell culture and embryo culture, is commonly used in hospital reproductive centers.
