Managing your ventilated patients

Your ventilated patients are coping with challenging diagnoses, life-limiting conditions or exacerbations that may lead to hospital admission. Problems with their device or mask could affect their quality of life and their acceptance of and compliance with therapy.

With a deeper understanding of our technologies, modes and algorithms, you’ll be better placed to deliver setup and titration that supports effective, comfortable therapy for your patients over the long term. Discover how ResMed’s solutions could help.

Patient comfort

Climate Control

Tackle rainout, cold air and dryness in the nose or mouth with Climate Control, an intelligent system that is designed to promote comfort and therapy adherence through consistent, personalised temperature and humidity with reduced risk of rainout.

Ramp and Ramp down

Instead of starting therapy at high pressure or abruptly shifting to zero support, use Ramp and Ramp Down to gently ease patients into and out of therapy sessions.

Mask Fit

Fine-tune mask fit before the first therapy session to support therapy efficacy, promote comfort and limit unintentional leak.

Patient-device synchrony

TiControl

TiControl can support patient-device synchrony by helping your patients to achieve an inspiratory cycle that reflects their individual inhalation times, comfort preferences and physical condition.

Vsync

To improve treatment efficacy and deliver effective triggering and cycling, Vsync maintains comfortable synchronisation between the patient and the device, even in the presence of significant leak.

Rise time and fall time

Rise time and Fall time can support your patients’ comfort, work of breathing and synchrony, whatever their condition.

Trigger and cycle

Trigger and Cycle settings can fine-tune the detection of the beginning and end of each breath and adjust the effort required to inhale and exhale.

Modes & algorithms

iVAPS

iVAPS is an automated mode that maintains a preset target alveolar minute ventilation when there are changes in your patient’s condition, airway resistance, body position, sleep or respiratory muscles.

AutoEPAP

AutoEPAP* automatically adjusts EPAP to prevent full and partial obstructions.

iBR

Encourage spontaneous breathing with iBR, an intelligent back-up algorithm that offers comfortable support when it’s needed and stays out of the way when it’s not.

Safety volume

ResMed’s optional Safety Volume (SVt)* automatically adjusts pressure to deliver a target volume while offering a volume guarantee to pressure modes.

Remote monitoring

AirView: interactive reporting

Interactive reporting from AirView provides a useful overview of your patient’s respiratory metrics on a single screen and enables you to access, analyse and share up-to-date therapy and device data.

AirView: patient population management

The management by exception feature from AirView empowers you to automatically track changes in your patients’ clinical condition with customisable rules, thresholds, dashboards and notifications.

AirView: remote settings change

ResMed’s remote settings change feature from AirView enables you to remotely adjust Lumis therapy mode and device settings to address issues and support patient comfort, compliance and quality of life.
