Hundreds of millions of surgeries were performed worldwide, many of which require general anesthesia. Anesthesia is often administered via inhaled gases delivered by an anesthesia machine. Under-administration can cause unintended intraoperative awareness, wherein patients are partially awake but unable to speak and move. Such incidents can sometimes result in long-term psychological trauma. Over-administration can cause cardiac arrest and sometimes death. To prevent such instances, the ventilator and vaporizer functions of an anesthesia machine need to be routinely tested to ensure patient safety.
