Reliable, precise gas control in the ventilator saves lives
If vital bodily functions, such as breathing, no longer work independently, patients are instructed to use ventilators. These should not only control the mixture of air and oxygen in a precise and reliable manner, but should also support digital communication in documenting treatment with a view to modern medical applications.
The number of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), tuberculosis, asthma or lung inflammation has been on the increase for years. The COVID-19 pandemic has also brought the need for reliable ventilators back into the public eye. This requirement applies equally to intensive care medicine, emergency respiration and anaesthesia.
It can only be guaranteed that the patient is being supplied with sufficient oxygen when the device controls the supply of air and oxygen exactly. Adjustable gas concentrations are just as important as correct volume flow rates and pressure.
Safety and reliability are of increasing importance, in keeping with more efficient treatment processes, as this can reduce the working hours of care staff as a result of manual intervention in the ventilation process. Automatic data logging and management is essential for documenting the correct treatment. This task can be taken on by intelligent systems that work reliably and precisely.
Collaboration with Bürkert will enable you to concentrate on user-friendliness and ventilation modes as a manufacturer. Bürkert will support you with individual fluid technology solutions for mixing and controlling gases as an expert partner. Our experts rely on tried-and-tested, individually combinable standard components in compact designs for this work. By doing this, we then reduce development costs for your requirement profile. We also contribute our expertise in digital data acquisition and processing.
Fit for purpose: Safely design solutions for ventilators
We also analyse processes – because as armature experts, we develop the right solution from customised components to individually tailored systems for your devices. You will find a selection here – you can find out more in a no-obligation consultation.
