The smooth interior minimizes airflow resistance for stable ventilation, the 72-inch (1.8 m) length gives flexibility in patient positioning, and the single limb circuit includes ResMed’s QuickConnect with an expiratory valve. Latex-free and intended for single-patient use. ResMed reference code: 21311.

What is a single limb smooth bore circuit?

A breathing circuit is the tubing that carries air between the ventilator and the patient. This is a single limb circuit, meaning one tube carries inspiratory flow, with exhalation managed through an expiratory valve. The smooth bore interior (as opposed to corrugated/ribbed) reduces turbulence and airflow resistance, which helps deliver consistent ventilation. The Astral supports single and double limb circuits through interchangeable circuit adapters, so the circuit you use is matched to the adapter fitted to your device. Resmed
