Everyday, we strive to improve clinical outcomes in Intensive Care. We focus on reducing mortality rates, increasing patient outcome and staff satisfaction. This is what drives us in the ICU. Here you can find out how we do that and of course a look at what we do.
Challenges
—
23%
of all mechanically ventilated ICU patients develop acute respiratory distress syndrome¹.
Almost 50%
One year following discharge, almost 50% of ARDS survivors do not return to work due to intensive care acquired weakness.²
Lack of variability
leads to extended mechanical ventilation.³
Early mobilisation
results in a reduced legth of ICU stay.⁴
This is the new Evita
—We designed the new Evita V600 and V800 to support you with your daily clinical tasks in the ICU. Click on the topics below and learn how. For further information, download our product brochure here.
- Quick and safe to operate even in the most stressful situations due to intuitive menu access to both settings and your clinical data.
- All patient data, alarms and trends are fully recorded, conveniently exported via USB interface.
- Switch between multiple view configurations with the touch of a finger.
- Step-by-step guidance leads you through every procedure.
- The 360° alarm light flashes in the colour of the corresponding alarm priority and is visible from every direction.
This is differentiation
—Our devices combine high performance ventilation with an aesthetic design and state-of-the art operating philosophy. Watch our video below and discover the new simple way how you can guide your ventilation strategy.
This is the new user experience in mechanical ventilation.

This is more important than layout
We asked our User-Interface Designer Sebastian Fischer three questions about how the design process of a new user interface starts. What do you need to consider and what are the improvements in daily use?
This is what your colleagues think about it
You never get a second chance for a first impression. That’s why we asked Dr Thierbach three quick questions to get his impressions after having used the new Evita for the first time.
This is functionality
—This is how we help you improve patient outcomes with ventilation treatment tools for an indivual ventilation strategy: Download our ventilation function sheets and learn more about the facts and benefits of our tools.
Proven Facts
—
More natural breathing
with improved patient ventilation synchrony. ⁵٫⁶٫⁷
SmartCare/PS
is the only ventilation mode that shortens weaning time (up to 40%) and ICU stay.⁸
APRV
In patients suffering from moderate to severe ARDS, application of APRV improved lung funktion and haemo-dynamics. It also reduced the need for sedatives and the duration of mechanical ventilation as well as days in ICU.⁹
Shorter stay in ICU
NIV shortens stay on intensive care wards and reduces the length of hospital stay by an average of 3 days.¹⁰
This is improving outcomes
—Ventilated patients are among the most vulnerable in the hospital. We support ventilation strategies that help avoid lung injury while maximising gas exchange. Learn more about our solutions below:
