Lung protective ventilation practices are known to reduce the incidence of post-operative pulmonary complications*, which are associated with negative outcomes, longer length of stay and increased cost of care. By analysing data from anaesthesia machines in all operating rooms in a hospital, Lung Protective Ventilation Analytics enables anaesthesiologists to benchmark their ventilation performance against pre-defined goals to achieve a high standard of lung protective ventilation therapy.

• View insights into ventilation quality parameters, ventilation modes and lung recruitment manoeuvres
• Configure a target range of ventilation parameter settings to meet the standard operating procedures
• Box plots indicate the ventilation quality for a patient or cohort according to the configured target range

With Lung Protective Ventilation Analytics, you can strive for a continuous improvement in ventilation outcomes for a wide range of patients.

• Compare ventilation therapy delivered over different time periods based on quality indicators
• Access a single case view to visualise ventilation performance metrics about a specific operation
• Filter for specific ORs, cases, dates, time frames and ventilation modes

The dashboard of Lung Protective Ventilation Analytics can be adapted to support your individual ventilation strategy. Customise the default ventilation parameter target settings and apply time and content filters to visualise your desired data sets in the dashboard.

The Dräger Connect cloud solution is designed with security and data privacy in mind. Device data is transferred, collected and analysed. Data is encrypted and sent securely from the ServiceConnect^® Gateway installed in the hospital network to a high security cloud storage. Authorised users can access the services of Dräger Connect from desktop PCs or mobile devices via a secured connection to the cloud server.

In addition to Lung Protective Ventilation Analytics, Dräger Connect also equips you with dashboards for the analytics of your fleet management, OR readiness, anaesthesia efficiency and alarm management (additional subscriptions required).
