[The creation and manufacture of anesthetic respiratory equipment based on a complex systems approach].

The systems complex approach is essential for designing and manufacturing anesthetic respiratory equipment due to its great medical significance, a wide range, complexity, and rigid requirements for reliability. The system in question includes the subsystem "apparatus", "patient", and "operator" in each a considerable factors considering the existing features of designing, equipping the therapeutical institutions, as well as traditions, manufacturing characteristics, potential risks, etc. The application of this approach is analyzed by using the Spiron-type artificial lung ventilation and Polynarkon-type inhalation anesthetic apparatuses as examples.
