Mapleson circuits were invented by William Wesseley Mapleson (1926-2018) who was a UK born physicist with a focus on anaesthesia. In 1954 he wrote a paper classifying five different breathing circuits, labelled A through to E. Parker Healthcare offers two Mapleson C circuits which are designed to deliver anesthetic and oxygen agents while removing expired carbon dioxide during its use.

We offer a disposable paediatric circuit with a 40cm APL valve, and a disposable Mapleson C Adult. Both circuits are latex free with an option to remove the corrugated tubing to attach a breathing bag to the APL connector. For more information download our Mapleson C circuit brochure
