PURITAN BENNETT Pb840 buckle Accessories PN:4-073020-00
The Puritan Bennett 840 ventilator, commonly known as PB840, is a critical care ventilator designed specifically for adult and pediatric patients. Here are some main functions and information about the PB840 ventilator:
- Puritan Bennett 840 ventilator
- Manufacturer: Puritan Bennett, a subsidiary of Medtronic
- Patient scope: Suitable for adult and pediatric patients
- Ventilation mode: Provides multiple ventilation modes to support various patient conditions and clinical needs.
- Compact design: Designed as portable and user-friendly, it can be easily transported and set up in different medical environments.
- Advanced monitoring: Provides comprehensive monitoring capabilities to track patients' respiratory parameters and assist clinicians in making informed decisions.
- Alarm system: equipped with an alarm system to alert healthcare providers of any deviation from set parameters and ensure patient safety.
- Battery backup: typically includes a battery backup function to maintain ventilation during power outages or patient transportation.
- Comprehensive support: The manufacturer provides training materials, user manuals, and technical support.
- The Puritan Bennett 840 ventilator is a reliable and versatile tool used in hospitals and medical institutions to provide respiratory support to patients in need of mechanical ventilation.
The Puritan Bennett 840 ventilator is equipped with advanced monitoring capabilities that provide valuable data for healthcare providers to effectively assess and manage patients' respiratory status. Here are some key advanced monitoring functions of PB840 ventilator:
- Waveform display: PB840 typically includes waveform display, which can display real-time graphical representations of patient breathing patterns, airway pressure, flow rate, and volume. These waveforms can help clinical doctors intuitively understand and evaluate patients' respiratory mechanisms.
- Digital display: The ventilator displays the values of basic parameters such as tidal volume, respiratory rate, peak inspiratory pressure, and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP). These values are crucial for monitoring and adjusting ventilation settings.
- Trend monitoring: PB840 typically includes trend monitoring functionality that enables healthcare providers to track changes in respiratory parameters over time. Trends can help identify patterns, evaluate treatment effectiveness, and predict potential issues.
- Alarm and Reminder: The alarm system of the ventilator is designed to alert clinical doctors to deviations or critical events in set parameters, such as high airway pressure, low tidal volume, disconnection, or low battery power. Alerts help ensure patient safety and prompt intervention.
- AutoPEEP detection: Some models of PB840 have advanced algorithms that can detect AutoPEEP, which is a condition where air is trapped in the lungs at the end of exhalation. Detecting AutoPEEP is crucial for optimizing ventilation and preventing lung injury.
- Inhalation and exhalation pauses: PB840 can provide the function of performing inhalation and exhalation pauses, allowing clinicians to evaluate static compliance, airway resistance, and other parameters to fine tune ventilation settings.
- Oxygen monitoring: Ventilators typically include oxygen monitoring functionality to track oxygen saturation levels and guide adjustments to FiO2 (inhaled oxygen fraction) to maintain sufficient oxygenation.
