Breathing Circuit – Mapleson F (Paediatric)

The Breathing Circuit – Mapleson F (Paediatric), commonly known as the Jackson-Rees modification, is a lightweight anesthesia breathing circuit designed specifically for neonates and paediatric patients. It is widely used in operating theatres, NICUs, paediatric ICUs, and emergency settings due to its very low resistance and minimal dead space, which are critical for small patients.

This circuit features an open-ended reservoir bag that allows clinicians to visually monitor ventilation, assess chest movement, and easily control manual or assisted breathing. Fresh gas flow is delivered close to the patient, ensuring efficient gas exchange and rapid response to changes in ventilation.

Manufactured from medical-grade, latex-free materials, the Paediatric Mapleson F circuit is flexible, transparent, and compatible with standard anesthesia machines and breathing bags, making it a trusted choice for paediatric anesthesia and resuscitation.
