Various solutions are available for all the main types of helicopters and ambulances, as well as for hospital beds, stretchers, surfaces, shelves, poles, rails, and ceilings.
With four different types of handles and multiple mounts, the HAMILTON-T1 is a portable ventilator that adapts to your specific environment and situation.
CPR ventilation adapts the ventilation settings if you have to perform CPR. It shows the main monitoring parameters and curves relevant to the situation, and supports your workflow with quick access to preconfigurable settings, adequate alarm and trigger adjustment, and a CPR-timer display.
As a transport ventilator for ambulances, helicopters, and more, the HAMILTON-T1 is a favorite for many rescue crews. According to the HOVER survey (
Ventilators suitable for pandemics and mass casualties must be versatile and meet various requirements. The HAMILTON-T1 meets or exceeds all requirements in the AARC Guidelines for Acquisition of Ventilators to Meet Demands for Pandemic Flu and Mass Casualty Incidents (

Call of duty
Exposure to extreme conditions means a ventilator for armed forces has to meet very special requirements. That is where the HAMILTON-T1 Military takes over.
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.
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 (
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.
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.
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 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+).
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 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.

Life Link III operates nine helicopter bases located throughout Minnesota and Wisconsin. Helicopter and airplane services are available 24/7, providing on-scene emergency response and inter-facility transport.
Our preassembled breathing circuit sets include the essential consumables to operate the ventilator, conveniently packaged in one single bag.
All our essential consumables are specially developed for Hamilton Medical ventilators with guaranteed manufacturer quality.
To manage ventilation you usually have to set multiple parameters, such as pressure, volume, inspiratory and expiratory triggers, cuff pressure, and more. And each time your patient's condition changes, you have to make one or even several readjustments.
To simplify this process and reduce the knob-turning, we have created a range of solutions:
Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV) is a ventilation mode that provides continuous adaptation of respiratory rate, tidal volume, and inspiratory time, depending on the patient’s lung mechanics and effort. ASV has been shown to shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation in various patient populations with fewer manual settings (
Our intelligent ventilation mode INTELLiVENT-ASV promotes you from knob-turner to supervisor, reduces the number of manual interactions with the ventilator (
Conventional solutions for cuff pressure management require you to monitor and adjust cuff pressure by hand.
IntelliCuff secures your patient’s airway (
Whenever there is a problem, the ventilator alerts you using the alarm lamp, sound, and message bar.
The on-screen help offers you suggestions on how to resolve the alarm.
Our online Academy offers easy-to-follow learning paths to familiarize you with Hamilton Medical products and technologies as quickly as possible.
We use the HAMILTON-T1 for intrahospital transport and transfers to other hospitals. This ensures that the patient receives the same quality of ventilation during transport as at the bedside.

We are constantly working on further evolving our products. New features are added and existing features improved to ensure you always have access to the latest ventilation technology over your ventilator’s lifetime.
Whether it is in the ICU, in the MRI suite, or during transport, the user interface of all Hamilton Medical ventilators works in the same way.
Our Ventilation Cockpit integrates complex data into intuitive visualizations.
We develop our accessories for the highest possible patient safety and ease of use in mind. Whenever possible, we integrate them with our ventilators to simplify operation of the complete ventilator system.
