Guys i need some help - i originally got my materials for the Exit Bag method through a german book (The Helium Method). It differs a bit from PPeH and there are some things i'm not quite sure about.
First, the flow meter.
To get to the 15litres/min, in the book it says to first open the valve at the bottom (the one with yellow outline), until the flowmeter reads 15, then to open the valve on the right (blue outline) and "play" with it, until it fills the Exit Bag in about 40-60 seconds.
Can that be right? Maybe i understood it wrong, but i would think you just open the valve to the right and then adjust the one at the bottom until the flow-rate reads 15l/min...
What is the correct way to do it?
This is the Exit Bag and some tubes. Does the Exit Bag look OK?
What tubing should i use? The one at the bottom is oxygen tubing, which i think i would prefer, because it's so thin and flexible.
Might be too thin though?
How should i tape the tube to the Exit Bag? What tape should i use?
Here's a picture of the bag when it's drawn closed - doesn't look great. Would it work, being so crumpled around the neck? it wouldn't need to fit very tightly, right?
.
Thanks!
