Respiratory Care
Addressing the challenges of change
Dräger offers solutions to meet your specific needs.
Today respiratory care departments are faced with the challenges of a reduced workforce and a higher acuity of patients seen in the ICU. The balance of maintaining high quality care with fewer resources can be a daunting task.
A major challenge in the ICU is determining whether a patient is capable of weaning from the ventilator. Each day increases both the cost of care and the risk of adverse events such as ventilator induced lung injury or ventilator associated pneumonia, among many others.
We know all too well that caring for these patients takes concentration, commitment and creativity – from you and your equipment. At Dräger, we strive to understand linkages between different components that need to come together to provide seamless care and demonstrate real improvements – for you and your patients.
Dräger considers the entire ventilation process and how it can be improved. Our family of Hospital, Sub-Acute, Home, Emergency and Transport Respiratory Care Solutions can help to address some everyday challenges faced by Respiratory Therapists.
Transport Ventilation
Today’s cost and quality pressures place enormous demands on Emergency Care, both inside and outside the hospital. This is especially true because initial diagnosis and treatment decisions at the point of emergency remain a patient’s first and, sometimes only, opportunity for a favorable outcome.
Critical Ventilation
The Critical Care environment is one of the most complex and expensive areas in a hospital. As a result, the burdens on Critical Care departments and caregivers continue to increase.
Neonatal Ventilation
Newborns are special, but perhaps nowhere are they more special than in the hospital. Because of the complex needs of these tiny patients, the Newborn Intensive Care Unit continues to be one of the most costly segments of healthcare on a per-patient basis.
