ISO 80601-2-13

The standard for anaesthetic workstations and their modules. It covers the gas delivery system (including protection against a hypoxic mixture), the anaesthetic breathing system, ventilator performance and alarms, vaporiser output, and the monitoring that must be present (oxygen, airway pressure, expired volume, anaesthetic agent and CO2 through the related standards). The pre-use check before each list is part of how the workstation is used safely.

A summary written by BMEssentia for learning, not the text of the standard. Always work from the current official edition and the manufacturer's instructions.
