About this file
This document is a Request for Information (RFI) from the Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Health Administration (VHA) seeking information on anesthesia units for potential inclusion in the National Equipment Catalog. The RFI outlines the Draft Minimum Technical Requirements for the anesthesia units, which include FDA clearance, safety features, ventilation modes, and compatibility with VA medical records systems. The anticipated NAICS code is 339112 Surgical and Medical Instrument Manufacturing, and the Product Service Code is 6515 Medical and Surgical Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies. The RFI requests information from interested companies, including their business size status, company details, and any relevant product specifications or capabilities. Questions can be submitted by August 12, 2024, and responses are due by August 27, 2024. An Industry Day will be held on August 23, 2024.

Anesthesia Units – National Equipment Catalog DRAFT Minimum Technical Requirements MTR 1 – The anesthesia units must be cleared by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA).
MTR 2 – The anesthesia units’ pipeline connections must have a diameter-indexed safety system (DISS) or other equivalent means to prevent connection of dangerous gasses.
MTR 3 – The anesthesia units must have a hypoxic mixture fail-safe system control to prevent the unit from being set to dispense a hypoxic mixture. The N20 and O2 flow must be interlocked in ratio proportions with a minimum value of 25% to produce a breathing mixture.
MTR 4 – The anesthesia units’ ventilation modes should support continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) volume and pressure control.
MTR 5 – The anesthesia units’ respirator frequency must be able to be set within a range of 3-100 breaths per minute.
MTR 6 – The anesthesia unit’s ventilator inspiratory gas flow range must be between 1-180 L/min.
MTR 7 – The anesthesia unit’s monitors must include a continuing pressure alarm capable of sensing high gas pressure and include minimum selectable threshold levels in the patient’s breathing circuit.
MTR 8 – The anesthesia units must be able to interface with VA VISTA, CPRC, CERNER, and anesthesia health records keeping systems.
MTR 9 – The anesthesia unit packages must be severable such that separately priced items can be purchased to complete bundles (to include freight, warranty, and technical support).
