What is a Respiratory Assist Device?
A respiratory support device is a medical device that allows patients to take in enough oxygen and excrete carbon dioxide. These devices help maintain breathing by supporting or completely replacing the patient's respiratory functions.
Features of the Device
Various Modes: Respiratory support devices offer adjustable modes according to the patient's condition and needs. These modes include invasive and non-invasive ventilation options.
Automatic Adjustment and Monitoring: The devices automatically monitor and adjust the patient's respiratory parameters. This ensures that respiratory support is maintained at an optimal level.
Alarm Systems: When abnormal respiratory parameters are detected, the device automatically sounds an alarm. This allows medical personnel to intervene quickly.
Lightweight and Portable Design: Modern respiratory support devices do not restrict the patient's mobility with their portable and lightweight design. This makes it possible to use the devices outside of intensive care units.
Large Screen and User Friendly Interface: The devices offer a user-friendly interface with large and readable screens. This ensures that healthcare staff can easily operate the device.
Device Benefits
Patient Safety: Respiratory support helps protect patients from life-threatening situations and provides life support in cases of respiratory failure.
Comfort and Flexibility: A variety of modes and settings improve patient comfort and ensure that respiratory support is delivered in the most appropriate way for the patient.
Rapid Response: Thanks to automatic monitoring and alarm systems, any changes in respiratory parameters are quickly detected and necessary interventions are made.
Mobility: Portable respiratory support devices allow patients to be treated in the hospital or at home.
Areas of Use of the Device
Intensive Care Units: Providing respiratory support to critically ill patients.
Emergency Departments: Stabilization of patients requiring emergency respiratory support.
Home Care: Treatment of patients with chronic respiratory failure at home.
Operating Rooms and Postoperative Care: Supporting patients' respiratory function during and after surgical procedures.
