Protective ventilation
Here you will find a summary of various approaches for protective mechanical ventilation and discover tools that can help make application easier, safer and more efficient.

Spontaneous breathing
Today, ventilation strategies are changing. Artificial measures are no longer the focus. Instead, we look at encouraging the natural function of normal breathing. This introduction describes progress in this area, highlighting the relevance of spontaneous breathing during artificial ventilation.

The History of mechanical ventilation
It all started with the Pulmotor – for which Heinrich Dräger received his first patent in 1907. Discover other milestones in ventilation and take a look at what's on the horizon.

Non-invasive ventilation
Since the first use of positive end-expiratory pressure ventilation in the late 1930's and early 1940's to treat cardiogenic pulmonary edema and other forms of non-hypercapnic respiratory failure, non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has come a very long way.

Ventilation modes in intensive care
As in many other fields, the technical complexity has increased significantly in ventilation. Today modern ventilators might feature more than two dozen modes; some even utilize computer-assisted artificial intelligence.
Support your patients with a wide range of treatment options – from adults to infants
Our highly advanced ventilation and respiratory monitoring products support a broad spectrum of patients. With high-end ventilation capabilities, comprehensive monitoring, and effective treatment functions, they are the ideal choice for respiratory care hospital-wide.
