The anesthesia machine (English English) or anesthesia machine (English English) or Boyle Machine is used separately by anesthesiologists physicians and nurses anesthetist. An anesthesiologist's assistant also uses an anesthesia machine under the direct supervision of a doctor's anesthetist. Anesthesia machines are used to support anesthesia administration. The most common type of anesthesia machine used in developed countries is a sustainable anesthesia machine designed to provide an accurate and sustainable supply of medical gas (such as oxygen and nitrous oxide), mixed with an accurate concentration of vapor anesthesia (such as isoflurane), and give this to patient at pressure and safe flow. Modern machines combine ventilators, suction units, and patient monitoring devices.
The original concept of Boyle machine was invented by the British anesthesiologist Henry Boyle (1875-1941) in 1917. Prior to this time, anesthesiologists often carried all their equipment, but the development of large and heavy cylinder storage, as well as increasingly complicated airway equipment. meaning it is no longer practical for most circumstances. An anesthesia machine is usually mounted on an anti-static wheel for convenient transportation.
The simpler anesthetic apparatus can be used in special circumstances, such as TriService Apparatus, a simplified anesthesia delivery system created for the British armed forces, which is light and portable and can be used effectively even when no medical gas is available. This device has a one-way valve that sucks ambient air that can be enriched with oxygen from the cylinder, with the help of a set of bellows. A large number of draw-over anesthesia apparatus are still used in India to provide a patient-enriched air-ether mixture, which can be enriched with oxygen.
Many early innovations in US anesthesia equipment, including closed-circuit carbon dioxide (a.k.a Guedel-Foregger Midget) and diffusion of such equipment to anesthesia in the United States can be attributed to Richard von Foregger and The Foregger Company.
In simple dentistry of an anesthesia machine, without ventilator or vaporiser anesthesia, it is referred to as a relative analgesia machine. Using this machine, dentists can provide mild inhalation sedation with nitrous oxide and oxygen, to keep their patients in a conscious state while suppressing the pain.

Components of a regular machine
Modern anesthesia machines include the following components:
- Connection to hospital oxygen pipe, medical air, and nitrous oxide.
- Backup of oxygen, air, and nitrous oxide gas cylinders attached via a particular yoke with Bodok seal.
- High flow oxygen flow which provides pure oxygen at 30-75 liters/minute
- Pressure gauges, regulators and 'pop-off' valves, to protect engine components and patients from high pressure gas
- Flow meters (rotameters) for oxygen, air, and nitrous oxide, Low oxygen nitro oxide flow meter
- An updated vaporizer to provide accurate dose control when using volatile anesthetics such as isoflurane and sevoflurane
- Integrated ventilator to provide good ventilation to patients during administration of anesthesia
- Manual ventilation bag combined with Adjustable Pressure Restriction valve (APL)
- The system to monitor the gas provided, and exhaled by the patient
- Systems for monitoring patient's heart rate, ECG, blood pressure and oxygen saturation, in some cases with additional options for monitoring end-tidal carbon dioxide and temperature
- respiratory circuit, circle attachment , or Bain breathing system

Modern machine security features
Based on the experience gained from accident analysis, the modern anesthesia machine incorporates several security devices, including:
- oxygen failure alarm (a.k.a. 'Oxygen Failure Warning Device' or OFWD). In an older machine this is a pneumatic device called a Ritchie whistle that reads when the 38 psi oxygen pressure falls. The newer machines have electronic sensors.
- Nitrogen failure-stopper or oxygen failure protection kit, OFPD: medical nitrous-oxide flow depends on oxygen pressure. This is done at the regulator level. Basically, the nitric oxide regulator is the oxygen regulator 'slave'. that is, if the oxygen pressure is lost the other gases can not flow through the regulator
- hypoxic-mixture alarm (protective hypoxy or ratio control) to prevent gas mixtures containing less than 21-25% of oxygen delivered to the patient. In modern machines it is impossible to provide 100% nitrous oxide (or mixed hypoxia) to the patient for breathing. Oxygen is automatically added to the fresh gas stream even if the anesthesiologist should strive to provide 100% nitrous oxide. Ratio control usually operates on a pneumatic or chain-connected principle (link system 25). Both are located in rotameter assembly, except electronically controlled.
- Ventilator alarm, which warns low or high air pressure.
- interlock between vaporizers preventing accidental administration of more than one volatile agent simultaneously
- alarm on all physiological monitors above
- The Pin Index Security System prevents cylinders from accidentally connecting to the wrong yoke
- NIST (Non-Interchangeable Screw Thread) or the Safety System Diameter Index, the DISS system for pipe gas, which prevents pipe gases from walls accidentally connected to the wrong inlet on the machine
- the pipeline hose has an irrevocable Schrader valve connector, which prevents the hose from accidentally plugging into an incorrect outlet
The engine function should be checked at the beginning of each operation list in the "cockpit-drill". Machinery and related equipment must be maintained and maintained regularly.
Older engines may lack some of the safety and repair features that exist in newer machines. However, they are designed to be operated without major electricity, using compressed gas power for ventilators and suction tools. Modern machines often have backup batteries, but may fail when these become exhausted.
The modern anesthesia machine still retains all the main working principles of the Boyle machine (the name of the British Oxygen Trade company) in honor of the British anesthesiologist Henry Boyle. But in India, the trade name 'Boyle' is registered in Boyle HealthCare Pvt. Ltd., Indore MP.
A two-person pre-use check (consisting of an anesthesiologist and operating department practitioner) of the anesthesia machine is recommended before every single case and has been shown to reduce the risk of severe 24-hour postoperative morbidity and mortality. Various regulatory and professional bodies have developed checklists for various countries. Free transparent reality simulation from checklist recommended by USA Food & amp; Drug Administration is available from the Virtual Anesthesia Engine website (see below) after registration which is also free. Machines should be cleaned between cases as they are at risk of contamination with pathogens.
Anesthesia machine vs anesthetic basket
Anesthesia machines contain mechanical respiration (ventilator) and O2 support and are a means to manage anesthetic gases that can be used for sedation and total anesthesia. An anesthesia cart holds additional IV medicines for anesthesia, sedation and reversal, additional equipment required by anesthesiologist/sedation, and hardware for support of respiration and resuscitation.
