The GO2VENT provides constant fl ow, pressure cycled ventilatory support in either pressure controlor pressure support modes on patients weighing 10kg and above. The device includes the pulmonarymodulator (an exhalation valve that opens at PIP and closes at PEEP) and a patient connector teeto supply gas fl ow, entrain additional air, and provides a redundant pop-off valve for safety. Theworking mechanism of the GO2VENT consists of a moving diaphragm which adds or subtractsspring force when it is moved from a horizontal to a vertical position, the addition or subtraction ofspring force will aff ect the PIP setting by 1~3 cm-H2O. The GO2VENT will function in any position aslong as the fi nal adjustments are made in a secured position (strapped or taped to the patient).
A non-sterile device designed to provide or assist ventilation in a patient who is apnoeic or exhibits inadequate respiration through automatic pneumatic-driven pressure cycle functions. It is connected to a source of compressed oxygen (O2) and, if not entrained, medical air via oxygen/air terminal units or gas cylinder(s). It typically includes gas supply tubing, a gas control modulator, gas connector(s), safety valves, and a flex connector to connect to a face mask or endotracheal (ET) tube. It is used in ambulances, intensive care units (ICU), during internal patient transfer, accident and emergency (A&E), and mass casualty incidents (MCI). This is a single-use device.
