The program that I work for is presently
investigating purchasing a new transport ventilator. The one that we use
now works great for most adults.The problem is that it does only volume
control ventilation. So, it doesn't work for smaller children. We
transport children as young as 28 days up through adults. We do
interfacility as well as scene work.
I wondered what's being used in other
programs with a similar patient population? We are especially interested
in a vent that does volume as well as pressure control. Hopefully, that
would enable us to carry one ventilator and meet the needs of our entire
patient population.
Thanks
