## Indications for use
The Fisher & Paykel Healthcare MR850 humidifier is intended to be used to warm and add humidity to gases delivered to patients requiring mechanical ventilation or positive pressure breathing assistance or general medical gases. The heated-wire breathing circuits are intended as conduits of breathing gas for ventilation of patients, and to maintain the temperature of humidified inspired gas, to reduce condensation. They are accessories for the Fisher & Paykel Healthcare MR850 Respiratory Gas Humidifier. The RT130 is used for flow rates between 0.3 and 4 L/min, and the RT131 is for flow rates greater than 4 L/min, for neonatal patients.
