NEWPORT MEDICAL INSTRUMENTS, Costa Mesa, Calif, introduces the Newport e360 Ventilator. The e360 features a new Biphasic breath type in its latest software version. Biphasic pressure release ventilation (BPRV) allows free inhalation and exhalation during a pressure-controlled breath by means of a partially open, actively controlled exhalation valve. The goal of BPRV is to improve patient comfort, reduce the expiratory work of breathing, and possibly improve oxygenation when the patient has an intact respiratory drive.

COVIDIEN, Mansfield, Mass, expands the capabilities of its Puritan Bennett 840™ ventilator with a Respiratory Mechanics (RM) software option. The RM option allows clinicians to assess lung status and performance to help determine if a patient is ready to be weaned. This is accomplished by providing an occlusion pressure maneuver (P0.1), plus coached respiratory maneuvers such as negative inspiratory force (NIF) and vital capacity (VC). A GUI information panel displays the maneuver name, user prompts and controls, and recent measured results. The last three values for NIF, P0.1, and VC are saved and displayed in tabular form for data collection.
