Below you can find an overview of the technologies and features that are available on our ventilators. Not all features are available in all markets or on all ventilators, so please contact your local supplier for more details.
The ventilation mode ASV continuously adjusts the respiratory rate, tidal volume, and inspiratory time breath by breath depending on the patient’s lung mechanics and effort ‑ 24 hours a day, from intubation to extubation.
The intelligent ventilation mode INTELLiVENT‑ASV continuously controls the ventilation and oxygenation of the patient.
It sets the minute ventilation, PEEP, and Oxygen based on the targets set by the clinician, and on physiologic input from the patient.
Continuously analyzing waveform shapes hundreds of times per second allows IntelliSync+ to detect patient efforts and cycling immediately, and initiate inspiration and expiration in real‑time.
IntelliSync+ applies to invasive and noninvasive ventilation, regardless of the ventilation mode.
You can use the P/V Tool to assess lung recruitability and determine the recruitment strategy.
Additionally, you can use it to perform a sustained inflation recruitment maneuver and measure the increase in lung volume.
Transpulmonary pressure monitoring enables optimization of PEEP, tidal volume, and inspiratory pressure (
Use it in combination with the P/V Tool to assess lung recruitability and perform recruitment maneuvers.
The unique ventilator connectivity option enables you to operate the HAMILTON‑H900 humidifier (
The humidifier can also select the humidification mode automatically (invasive, noninvasive, or high flow) based on the selected ventilation mode.
The integrated pneumatic nebulizer is fully synchronized with the timing of inspiration and expiration.
An integrated, synchronized Aerogen nebulizer is available as an option (
The delivery of a fine mist of drug aerosol particles helps you reverse bronchospasm, improve ventilation efficiency, and reduce hypercapnia (
IntelliCuff continuously measures and automatically maintains the user‑set cuff pressure of an endotracheal or tracheostomy tube in real‑time (
High flow nasal cannula therapy (
CPR ventilation adapts the ventilator settings during rescucitation. It supports the CPR workflow with quick access to preconfigurable settings, adequate alarm and trigger adjustment, and CPR‑timer display.
The main monitoring parameters and curves relevant to CPR ventilation are also displayed.
The Speak Valve option gives tracheostomized patients a voice, and allows them to swallow even while receiving respiratory support.
The ventilator's monitoring, triggering, and alarm management are adjusted for compatibility with speaking valves in pressure‑controlled modes (PCV+, SPONT, PSIMV+).
Proximal flow and CO2 measurement enables our ventilators to perform up‑to‑date volumetric capnography, which provides an important basis for the assessment of ventilation quality and metabolic activity.
The Vent Status panel displays six parameters related to the patient’s ventilator dependence, including oxygenation, CO2 elimination, and patient activity.
A floating indicator moving up and down within each column shows the current value for a given parameter.
Quick Wean is a feature of the INTELLiVENT‑ASV mode that provides continuous dynamic monitoring and control of patient conditions to evaluate the patient’s readiness for extubation.
The automated spontaneous breathing trials (SBTs) are part of the Quick Wean function in the INTELLiVENT‑ASV mode and give you the option of conducting fully controlled SBTs.
The Dynamic Lung panel shows you a graphic real‑time representation of the following important monitoring data:
The ventilator can display a dynamic loop based on a selected combination of monitored parameters. With the trend function, you can see trending information displayed for the monitoring parameters and time frame of your choice.
The device continually stores the monitored parameters in its memory, even when in Standby.
The SpO2 option offers integrated noninvasive SpO2 measurement with the data displayed conveniently on your ventilator.
We also offer a comprehensive portfolio of SpO2 sensors.
The noninvasive ventilation modes deliver pressure‑supported, flow‑cycled spontaneous breaths (NIV and NIV‑ST mode) and pressure‑controlled, time‑cycled mandatory breaths (NIV‑ST).
Compared to ventilators using compressed air, our turbine‑driven ventilators are capable of providing higher peak flow rates. This guarantees optimal performance even with large leaks.
With the nCPAP mode, the patient is supported with a continuous positive airway pressure. In our flow‑controlled devices, the desired CPAP value is set via the respiratory gas flow. In order to compensate for any leakage that occurs, e.g. via the mouth or at the nose, the LeakAssist function can be activated. A predefined pressure can then be targeted with additional respiratory gas flow.
