What is transport ventilator?

Transport ventilators provide ventilatory support for patients who cannot breathe on their own or who require assistance maintaining adequate ventilation because of illness, trauma, congenital defects, or the effects of drugs (e.g., anesthetics).

How does a pneumatic ventilator work?

Pneumatic ventilators use needle valves, Venturi entrainers (injectors), flexible diaphragms, and spring-loaded valves to control flow, volume delivery, and inspiratory and expiratory function (Fig. 2-1). The Bird Mark 7 is an example of a pneumatically powered and operated ventilator.

What is difference between ventilator and a respirator?

Your doctor might call it a “mechanical ventilator.” People also often refer to it as a “breathing machine” or “respirator.” Technically, a respirator is a mask that medical workers wear when they care for someone with a contagious illness. A ventilator is a bedside machine with tubes that connect to your airways.

What is the difference between portable ventilator and ICU ventilator?

Portable ventilators may not provide identical support to the ICU machine in use despite apparently similar settings; a trial period should always be allowed before moving the patient. Portable ventilators that assist spontaneously breathing patients are more complex and generally require microprocessor control.
