The Technology
The AdultLife Ventilator provides both CPAP and pressure control ventilation to offer breathing support and treatment to patients with a range of medical conditions, including apnea, asphyxia, infection, pneumonia, and trauma.
CPAP, or continuous positive airway pressure, forces air into the patient’s lungs to keep the lungs open and lessen efforts required to breathe. Pressure control ventilation offers complete machine breathing for the patient through an endotracheal tube inserted into the airway. These technologies are standard use for infants and adults in advanced hospitals throughout the world. The AdultLife Ventilator mimics the core functions of its high-end counterparts and does so at a fraction of the cost and with minimal room for user error.
Features
Several features of the device make it ideal for use in challenging environments. Its durability and portability allow it to be easily transferred between health clinics, hospitals, or temporary treatment areas. The standalone ventilator can function with or without an external power supply and/or oxygen source, employing a rechargeable backup battery and internal pump when necessary. To prevent user error, the AdultLife Ventilator was designed with a simple user interface, easy connections, as well as clear step-by-step instructions.
