The Pulmonex II Xenon System is the
best choice for the performance of all regional ventilation studies. It’s
safe, simple to operate and affordable.
Resistance-Free Breathing
The injected bolus of xenon will reach the patient
exactly when desired. Oxygen may be added to the system any time during the
study with the press of a button. An in-line cartridge containing soda-lime
absorbs CO2 preventing
acidosis. Large breathing passages, two 10-liter breathing bags (air-in and
air-out) and motor-assisted air flow combine to provide resistance-free
breathing.
Simple to Operate
All three steps of a Pulmonex II
Xenon study (start up, equilibrium imaging and washout) are controlled by a
single valve handle on the front panel. The valve directs the motor-assisted
flow of gases throughout the system. A manually adjusted fifteen minute
timer initiates all functions, then automatically shuts down the system to
complete the study after patient and system washout. With controls
conveniently located on the front panel, the user can operate the system and
observe the patient and gamma camera from one position. Panel controls are
clearly marked for each mode of the procedure with large viewing windows to
make it easy to monitor the patient’s breathing. A trim, clean design, large
handles and total mobility permit easy positioning of the system for studies
in both seated and supine positions.

Position One:
Start – Patient breathes room air. System is
charged with oxygen.
Position Two:
Single Breath and Equilibrium Imaging – This is
when you add Xe-133, either a bolus or a homogeneous mixture. An
in-line cartridge containing soda-lime absorbs CO2
to prevent acidosis. The system is completely closed in this
position with no chance of contaminating room air. When the patient
equilibrates, the user switches the handle to washout position.
Position Three:
Washout – The patient is
now breathing room air from a one-way valve through the delivery
system and exhaling into the built-in charcoal trap. During washout
a pump draws the patient’s expired breath through the activated
charcoal trap. The xenon is stripped away and only clean air leaves
the trap exit port. |

Designed for Safety
Internal systems of the Pulmonex II
are shielded for patient and operator safety. The system features a built-in
gas trap that operates with a blower fan. Exhaled xenon is pulled through
activated charcoal housed within a .125" lead shielded “U”-shaped trap. A
cartridge containing drierite serves as a moisture absorber for air passing
into the trap. The charcoal trap can then more effectively remove xenon
effluent after each study. Air flow regulation of the trap pump assures
complete patient and system washout. Averaging 15 studies per month, the
charcoal trap will last approximately one year. Charcoal traps are easily
replaced.
A disposable bacteriostatic filter, used in conjunction with a disposable
mask or mouthpiece, prevents system contamination.
Pulmonex II Xenon System with
Double-Trap
For departments performing up to 15
xenon studies per month (upper dosage = 10-12 mCi), the Single-Trap Pulmonex
II is ideal. For higher volume departments with more frequent xenon studies
or higher dosages, the Double-Trap Pulmonex II is recommended. The double
trap will extend the life of your charcoal system and provide double the
migration path for xenon effluent, allowing greater decay and absorption
before exhaustion.
