  • Title: The Bain, ADE, and Enclosed Magill breathing systems. A comparative study during controlled ventilation.
    Author: Criswell J, McKenzie S, Day S, Disley J, Bruce WE, Soni N.
    Journal: Anaesthesia; 1990 Feb; 45(2):113-7. PubMed ID: 2108586.
    Abstract:
    The Enclosed Magill, Humphrey ADE and the Bain breathing systems are all used for controlled ventilation of the lungs. This study compares the three systems in vitro with a lung model and in clinical practice. No difference was observed, with ventilatory variables commonly used in clinical practice, between the Bain and the ADE, while significantly lower end-tidal carbon dioxide values were observed with the Enclosed Magill (about 7%). Lower fresh gas flows can be used under these circumstances to maintain normocapnia with the Enclosed Magill than either the Bain or the Humphrey ADE.
