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.
Kind regards Brenda

[cid:image001.png@01D64A11.668044B0]Hi All,
I posted this query earlier in the month without a response, if anyone is able to provide some insight I would be happy for you to email me personally.
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,
