Nottingham City Hospital chose the Dräger Movita® workplace solution aiming at providing all-round access to the patient, ergonomic positioning and handling of medical equipment, excellent cable management, and a free floor. The new integrated hoist and mobilization system resulted in improved clinical workflow, patient comfort and safety, and staff satisfaction.

In February 2012, Dräger Zeus® Infinity Empowered (IE) target controlled capable anaesthetic machines were introduced into all operating theatres within City Hospitals Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust.

In 2013 Glenfield Hospitals, part of University Hospitals Leicester, changed its approach to using the Dräger Evita. This has enabled the hospital to make cost efficiencies, improve patient comfort and increase ease of use for staff, forming part of a seamless care pathway.

Although low- and minimal-flow anaesthesia offers many benefits, successful adoption has been hindered by a lack of simple-to-use methods to guide anaesthetists on the efficient usage of volatile gases. This is now set to change following an advancement in gas monitoring software, which measures the actual agent consumption versus uptake.

Knowledge-Based Systems for Automatic Ventilatory Management

Committed to guiding daily respiratory therapy and helping prevent lung damage. Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) has received increasing attention from the scientific community for more than 20 years. Its documented contribution to monitoring, quantification and the evaluation of therapeutic measures effectively complements other tools for respiratory monitoring.

Improving Intensive Care Unit (ICU) outcomes by reducing ventilator associated complications and ventilator days may be achieved by re-engineering the weaning process 1.

At Norwalk Hospital, clinicians are reaping the benefits of a multi-tiered platform in one, user-friendly format.

A case description of a patient who was difficult to wean.

Philip Thaut, respiratory therapist, explains in this interview why SmartCare®/PS became an essential adjunct to the current ventilator management strategy at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center Provo.

In 2009 London’s St Mary’s Hospital Imperial NHS Trust changed from reusable to disposable expiration valves in the adult ICU. The decision, which was based on several factors including improved infection control and ease of use, has also brought the benefits of lower cost and immediate availability.

When choosing patient monitors for its new Cardiac Unit, Derriford Hospital thought beyond a single unit and created a hospital-wide solution where the monitor follows the patient throughout the episode of care – collecting vital signs data without interruption and making clinical data available wherever needed via the network
