title: A versatile antipollution device.
abstract: Removal of anaesthetic pollutants from the operating theatre environment requires the use of relatively sophisticated equipment which must be added to an existing life support system (the anaesthetic machine). The interface is only one part of this system and to be safe and satisfactory it must be as simple and versatile as possible and be designed in such a way as to render incorrect connection and use virtually impossible.
