[The standardization of equipment for artificial pulmonary ventilation and inhalation anesthesia in Russia].
Basic trends in the standardization of anesthetic and respiratory equipment are considered. Its important impact on the functional characteristics, safety, and specific features in the manufacture of apparatuses, for artificial lung and ventilation anesthesia are stressed. ⋯ Basic difficulties in applying the standards are due to a great number of various normative documents, a more strict and frequently formal approach that exists in Russia for meeting the specifications, weak effectualness of standards for components used in general engineering. Topical tasks to harmonize the requirements for standards, to make consideration of the existing features of design, production, and use better, and to expand the requirements for the functional characteristics of equipment are set.
