When it comes to troubleshooting the anesthesia gas machines, I have a few tips that I have learned over the years that are tried and tested that I standby.

TIPS:

1) Daily cleaning will prevent 90 percent of all your problems, and a general deep cleaning at least once per month will greatly reduce errors and problems.

2) Whenever you have an error, start with the patient and work your way back to the machine.

3) If I get a call from a provider about an error or malfunction, I always bring replacement parts to the OR to save on time, and I take the damaged or broken parts to an empty OR to troubles- hoot it there. Many providers appreciate that.
