Electronic control—a new concept for vaporizing anesthetic agent
The Datex-Ohmeda S/5 Anesthesia Delivery Unit Aladin Cassette is a new concept for vaporizing anesthetic
agent. The Anesthesia Delivery Unit electronic control helps provide unique features such as automatic
record keeping of set agent concentration and agent usage calculation. Agent specific Aladin Cassettes can
be used to deliver enflurane, isoflurane, halothane, sevoflurane and desflurane anesthetic agents.
