A medical gas pipeline system (MGPS) is installed to provide a safe, convenient and cost-effective system for the provision of medical gases such as Oxygen, Nitrous Oxide, Medical Air, Surgical Air,Medical Vacuum and Anesthetic Gas Scavenging Systems to the clinical and nursing staff at the point-of-use.
Medical Gas System Standereds:
HTM 0201 ( UK Standard).
NFPA 99 ( American Standard).
Oxygen is one of the most extensively used gases for respiratory therapy and life-support and is additionally used in
anesthetic procedures.
Nitrous oxide is used for anesthetic and analgesic purposes, being mixed with air, oxygen, and nebulized agents Medical air is mainly used in respiratory therapy as a power source for patient ventilators, and for blending with oxygen.
It is also used as the driving gas for nebulized drugs and chemotherapy agents.
Piped vacuum is provided in most clinical areas by means of centrally sited vacuum pumps.
The control of occupational exposure to waste anesthetic gas (Nitrous Oxide) and nebulized agents is a legal requirement under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations 2002. Where Nitrous Oxide is provided for anesthetic purposes, scavenging systems are installed.
