Abstract
Medical gases used in anaesthesia and intensive care include oxygen, nitrous oxide, medical air, entonox, carbon dioxide, heliox and nitric oxide. Breathable gases administered to patients are stored either in bulk outside the hospital or in cylinders within the hospital. Medical gases are then distributed throughout the hospital via a pipeline network.
