Continuity of care in ventilation
Apollo has the ventilation technology to care for patients with a wide range of age and acuity.
The E-Vent plus servo controlled high-speed piston ventilator works with great precision to supply a maximum peak flow far in excess of any bellows ventilator, resulting in the kind of performance previously only seen in the ICU. Additionally, unlike a bellows ventilator, it requires no drive gas. The very short response time has clear physiological benefits for your patients while the digital precision helps you make the most of the latest ventilation modes.
Decelerating flow control and optimum flow in the face of inspiratory resistance add up to critical-care-quality ventilation. This eliminates the need for a separate ICU ventilator in the OR and sets a new ventilation standard. In synchronized Volume Mode, Apollo offers benefits such as an adjustable flow trigger that reduces the patient’s respiratory work and adjustable PEEP. With E-Vent plus, you can switch smoothly from controlled to spontaneous respiration. In addition, Apollo is available with Pressure Support, an assisted spontaneous respiratory mode which allows the patient to breathe spontaneously for extended periods by reducing the work of breathing.
