THE ADA RECOMMENDATION for “Minimal” sedation in regard to Analgesia equipment is as follows: “WHEN INHALATION EQUIPMENT IS USED, IT MUST HAVE A FAIL SAFE SYSTEM THAT IS APPROPRIATELY CHECKED AND CALIBRATED. THE EQUIPMENT MUST ALSO HAVE A FUNCTIONING DEVICE THAT PROHIBITS THE DELIVERY OF LESS THEN 30% OXYGEN or an appropriately calibrated and functioning in line oxygen analyzer with audible alarm”.
Every Flowmeter should be re calibrated (according to the manufacturer's recommendation) in order to insure accuracy and to limit your potential liability. This should be done at least every two years according to the major manufacturer(s).This is a requirement in some states.
