A device and to a process supply a patient-side coupling unit (9) with a gas mixture. The patient-side coupling unit is connectable to a patient (Pt). A first duct (K.1) guides a first gas component (air) from a first source (2) to a mixing point (8). A second source (20) provides a second gas component, which is guided to a front pressure inlet (V.3) of a pressure reducer (1). The pressure reducer provides the second gas component (O2) at a back pressure outlet (V.2). A time course of pressure at the back pressure outlet follows a time course of pressure at a reference point (11, 28.1) in the first duct. A second duct (K.2) guides the second gas component from the back pressure outlet to the mixing point. An inhalation duct (K.30) guides the gas mixture from the mixing point to the patient-side coupling unit.

An anesthetic equipment storage and waste air management module configured to housing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment including a system to measure and record administration of one or more IV medications or fluids for IV administration. The module can include a housing having a lower section and a tower-like upper section, wherein the lower section is configured to house unrelated waste heat-producing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment. The module can also include a cowling that substantially confines waste heat generated by the unrelated waste heat-producing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment, and can include a system for measuring and recording the administration of the one or more IV medications and fluids.

Examples of a module for housing unrelated electronic and electromechanical equipment for use during surgery. The module can include a lower section and a tower-like upper section. The lower section can house unrelated electronic and electromechanical equipment. The tower-like upper section can be located on top of the lower section. A water-resistant cowling can enclose at least a portion of the lower section and the tower-like upper section. A cartridge containing one or more ultraviolet-C producing lights can be protectively housed within the tower-like upper section. The cartridge containing one or more ultraviolet-C producing lights can be configured to emerge upward from a top of the tower-like upper section to substantially seat itself on the top of the tower-like upper section when activated allowing the ultraviolet-C light to disinfect the patient and staff-contacting upper surfaces of the equipment in the operating room.
