What is Medical Gases?

Medical gases are gases that are manufactured for use in medical applications. They can be used for a variety of purposes, including anesthesia, respiratory therapy, and the powering of medical devices. Common medical gases include oxygen, nitrogen, nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, helium, and compressed air. These gases are typically stored in cylinders or cryogenic tanks and are administered to patients through various devices like masks, nasal cannulas, or ventilators. Precise delivery and purity are critical, so medical gases are subject to strict quality control and regulatory standards.
