ResMed worked closely with clinical experts to make Astral easy to use and understand. The intuitive interface provides breath-by-breath statistics and auto-scaling real-time pressure and flow waveforms. Device and battery management is simplified by maintenance reminders and fast USB cloning of settings between devices.

• iVAPS has ResMed’s robust leak compensation feature (Vsync), a product of ResMed’s long experience in noninvasive ventilation. This promotes synchrony and comfort even during significant leak. Pressure support is adjusted continuously during the inspiration phase breath to breath, aiming to maintain target alveolar vent ilation.

Our study demonstrated that the real time analysis of pressure and flow waveforms during NIV (optimized ventilation) was associated with a different ventilator setting (that is, higher level of PEEPext, more sensitive inspiratory triggering and faster speed of pressurization) compared to the standard ventilation, leading to a more rapid pH ...

Real-time data and waveforms: including pressure and flow curves, tidal volume, as well as SpO 2 and FiO 2 levels are viewable on a large colour LCD display; An auto-scaling function: automatically adjusts graphs to scale for easy assessment at a glance; A user-friendly menu: provides intuitive navigation to setup options for quick access and ...

NIV initiation protocol for Chronic Respiratory Insufficiency or Failure. These are recommendations for NIV settings, but existing protocols within your facility should always take precedence. Back-up rate is only available in ST and PAC modes. The Troubleshooting Guide is available on the other side of this document.

• The VPAP ™ range includes ResMed’s premium NIV systems, ideal for nighttime ventilation. • ResMed’s ventilators are light, quiet and portable, providing nondependent patients with quality ventilation night and day. What is NIV? NIV is a form of assisted ventilation, providing air to your airways and lungs. This therapy is called

ResMed NIV Solutions Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is rapidly gaining acceptance around the world as the preferred choice of treatment over invasive ventilation. NIV delivers effective therapy with less risk of infection and improved survival in patients with respiratory failure. 1, 2, and 3

Tools to help patients understand and better accept home NIV therapy; How-to videos providing step-by-step guidance for home NIV treatment

Nocturnal pulse oximetry is a simple, cost-effective screening tool for assessing NIV’s impact on gas exchanges. Nocturnal pulse oximetry, whether standalone or connected to a ventilator, provides visual examination of SpO 2, leaks, and waveforms. It is suitable for detecting rapid desaturation during upper airway obstructions.

Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) supports the patient’s breathing without the need for intubation or a tracheotomy. In acute settings, NIV delivers effective therapy with less risk of infection and improved survival in patients with respiratory failure.
