Drager Fabius GS Features
The Drager Fabius GS is an inhalation anesthesia machine used in an operating, induction, and recovery rooms. It can be used with O2, N2O, and AIR supplied by a medical gas pipeline system or have externally mounted gas cylinders. The Fabius GS is equipped with a compact breathing system that provides fresh gas decoupling, PEEP, and pressure limitation. This anesthesia machine has 5 main ventilation options that include; Volume Controlled Ventilation, Pressure Controlled Ventilation, Pressure Support, Manual Ventilation, and Spontaneous Breathing. It’s equipped with an electrically driven and electronically controlled ventilator that monitors for airway pressure (P), volume (V), and inspiratory oxygen concentration (FiO2).
The Drager Fabius GS anesthesia machine is a popular choice for practitioners who demand advanced ventilation technology combined with reliable and proven breathing system components. The Fabius GS anesthesia workstation opens new frontiers in ventilation performance while maintaining well-established functionality.
