Medical gas flowmeter, dial-type (A device intended to regulate the flow of a medical gas [e.g., oxygen (O2), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O), helium/oxygen gas mixture (heliox), medical air] during various procedures (e.g., therapeutic administration, anaesthesia, insufflation during surgery). It has a pre-calibrated adjustable flow selection dial intended to control the gas flow rate; it is not intended to provide flow rate measurements. It will be calibrated to a specific medical gas and have a dedicated flow rate range, therefore some types may be dedicated to a specific patient group (e.g., neonate, infant, adult) or clinical use.)
