Hi All,
In our facility we have been using disposable anaesthetic circuits for a number of years. However with COVID / Pandemic demand there has been a shortage of disposable circuits and the alternative option has been a reusable circuit. I would be interested to hear from other facilities who use the reusable circuits regarding any identified IPC issues / risks and how these have been overcome.
Also if you have the choice is which type of circuit would you prefer and why?
Kind regards,

Dear Fiona,
As way of acknowledgement of your email, we use disposable breathing circuits – a Bain circuit and have been lucky not to experience any supply problems. So sorry I am of no help.

Hi Fiona,
Going back to ancient times when I was a periop nurse and then a CSSD manager we used reusable anaesthetic circuits.
We would use a new circuit for each patient and theses were provided in clean tubs by CSSD and the used circuit was placed back into the same tub and transported to CSSD.
When viral filters became available, we retained the circuit for the day, much like is practised with disposable circuits.
From a CSSD perspective, the tubing we used to use had a limited number or reuses and from memory this was either 20 or 30 uses before the tubing had to be discarded.
Tracking individual pieces of tubing was challenging, so you may need to identify a suitable system for identification of circuits throughout the reprocessing cycle.
Kind Regards

Hi Fiona,
When I was an anesthetic nurse in the late 80-early 90s, our circuits were reusable.
They were made from some sort of rubber black material and were changed between each patient.
We reprocessed them on a thermal disinfection cycle in a Miele and then they were placed into the dryer.
After drying each circuit was checked for integrity and then placed into a sealed clear plastic bag ready for use.
When filters came in, with disposable circuits that’s when we crossed over to completely disposable.Kind Regards

Hi Fiona,
Adding on to Terry’s comment about the difficulty of identifying individual tubing – at a prior CSSD I managed, there was a manual tracking system and a reasonable volume of respiratory items from sleep studies, lung function and other areas. All deliveries of reusable respiratory items had to come with a supply docket from the user area and we recorded key data on it using a custom-made, self-inking stamp. I have to say, it was the largest stamp I have ever seen in order to fit all of this on it.
Key data included:
> Time received in Decon
> Time out of the Washer-Disinfector and signature
> Time into anaesthetic dryer and signature
> Time out of anaesthetic dryer, check for total dryness, check for coolness prior to bagging up, and signature
Tracking to patient was not really feasible but for as long as the delivery was kept together in the clinic, there was a link back to the washer cycle and we at least had a record that we were meeting requirements on an ongoing basis. CSSD retained a copy of these return dockets.
More importantly, I think it allowed us to review a couple of the key risks to proper thermal disinfection; the time between disinfection and drying (items left with residual moisture, cooling down on the unload side of the washer risk becoming recontaminated) and ensuring that adequate time was spent in the dryer as well as cooling down before bagging (either step potentially resulting in condensation and thus recontamination during storage). As thermal disinfection is the final step of reprocessing here, we felt that an explicit record of monitoring those risks added value to the process.
Depending on your existing dryer attachments, an increase in tubing through CSSD may create a processing bottleneck as well.
Regards,
Andrew Ellis
