There are — different configurations of the Mapleson circuit
6
(A-F)
All Mapleson Circuits are classified as —– or non-rebreathing circuits
“semi-open”
All Mapleson Circuits are classified as semi-open or non-rebreathing circuits. Since inhaled and exhaled gases travel through the same tubing, there is a risk of
rebreathing
Mapleson Circuits - How Do They Work?
During expiration, gas containing —– enters the corrugated tubing and travels away from the patient
Carbon dioxide
After expiration but before the next inspiration, the —– continues to washout exhaled gas left inside the corrugated tubing.
FGF
During inhalation, the patient breathes in fresh gas. If the FGF is —–, the patient will also breathe in exhaled gas leftover in the corrugated tubing.
“inadequate”
Rebreathing is —– with a higher FGF, a smaller tidal volume, and a longer expiratory time
“minimized”
—– monitoring is the best method of determining the amount of fresh gas flow required to prevent rebreathing (look at the baseline of the capnograph).

Which is the Best Mapleson Circuit?
Well, that depends if the circuit will be used for —– or —– ventilation. You should know which are the best and worst for each mode of ventilation.
Spontaneous or Controlled
Mapleson — is the best for Spontaneous Ventilation
Mapleson A
(A > DFE > CB)

Mapleson — is the worst for Spontaneous Ventilation
“Mapleson B”

Mapleson — is the best for Controlled Ventilation
Mapleson D
(DFE >BC> A)

Mapleson — is the worst for Controlled Ventilation
“Mapleson A”

If you really want to get picky, the amount of rebreathing is a function of many things. These include:
Fresh gas flow
Minute ventilation
Mode of ventilation
Respiratory rate
Tidal volume
Inspiratory flow rate
l: E ratio
Volume of the reservoir bag
Volume of corrugated tubing
Use of a mask, LMA, or endotracheal tube.

It’s impossible to predict exactly how much FGF is required to prevent rebreathing. As a general rule ~ — times the patient’s minute ventilation should be enough in most cases
~ 2.5 times
It’s impossible to predict exactly how much FGF is required to prevent rebreathing. As a general rule ~ 2.5 times the patient’s minute ventilation should be enough in most cases. There are exceptions, however. A Mapleson A requires a FGF of ~ — L/min during controlled ventilation!
~ 20 L/min
