Anesthetic masks, also known as anesthesia masks or gas masks, are devices used to deliver anesthesia to patients undergoing medical procedures. These masks are made of soft, pliable material to ensure a comfortable fit over the patient's nose and mouth. They connect to an anesthesia machine or breathing circuit to deliver a mixture of gases, typically including oxygen and anesthetic agents such as nitrous oxide or volatile anesthetics. The masks come in various sizes to accommodate different patient populations, from infants to adults. Anesthesia masks play a crucial role in maintaining a patient's airway and delivering the appropriate concentration of anesthesia during surgeries and other medical procedures, ensuring patient comfort and safety throughout the process.
