Puritan Bennett 840 Covidien Ventilator

Description

The Puritan Bennett 840 Ventilator includes a breath
delivery unit (BDU) that controls ventilation, and a graphic
user interface (GUI) that monitors and displays ventilator
and monitored data (see Figure 1). The ventilator supplies
mandatory (pressure or volume controlled) or spontaneous
breaths (inspiratory flows of up to 200 L/min, with or without
pressure support) with a preset oxygen concentration. Breaths
can be pressure- or flow-triggered (using Flow-by).
Touch screens display monitored data separately from ventilator
settings for easy assessment of your patient’s condition.
This allows you to preview settings before applying them
to your patient, and the Alarm System helps you to quickly
determine the urgency and root cause of alarm conditions.
The optional 806 Compressor provides compressed air to the
BDU, and can be used in place of wall or cylinder air. The
standard 802 Backup Power Source (BPS) provides dc power
to the BDU and GUI in the event that ac power is lost.
Puritan Bennett 840 Ventilator mounting options include a
cart, pole mount or wall mount.
