Evaluation of the user-friendliness of 11 home mechanical ventilators.
The home ventilator market has grown in size and complexity. The aim of this study was to determine if common home ventilators are user-friendly for trained intensive care unit (ICU) physicians. Eleven ventilator models were tested by 13 ICU physicians without practical experience in home mechanical ventilation. Six tests were defined (start-up, unlocking, mode and setting recognition, mode cha...
متن کاملA comparison of turbine-driven mechanical ventilators and conventional ventilators
Turbine-driven mechanical ventilators have some important advantages over conventional ventilators. The most obvious of these is independence of compressed air supply during patient transport, but higher NIV performance due to higher peak flow is also often mentioned. However, there is still a widespread belief that conventional ventilators using compressed air supplies outperform turbine-drive...
متن کاملUpdate on modalities of mechanical ventilators.
Recent advances in ventilator technology have often not been confirmed by randomised trials and instead serious shortcomings have been highlighted. Ventilation modes should only be introduced into routine clinical practice when proved efficacious in appropriately designed studies and no adverse outcomes identified by long term follow up.
متن کاملObjective evaluation of neonatal ventilators.
Choosing which ventilator to purchase can dramatically affect what type of care patients get, practitioners’ working environment, and the hospital’s “bottom line.” Choosing a ventilator is a complicated process, often confounded by competing stakeholders. Trying to balance the desires of the hospital management, physicians, and respiratory therapists can be tricky. Getting the right equipment f...
متن کاملEvaluation of the user interface simplicity in the modern generation of mechanical ventilators.
OBJECTIVE We designed this study to evaluate the simplicity of the user interface in modern-generation mechanical ventilators. We hypothesized that different designs in the user interface could result in different rates of operational failures. SETTING A laboratory in a tertiary teaching hospital. DESIGN Crossover design. SUBJECTS Twenty-one medical resident physicians who did not possess...
