FEATURES & BENEFITS |
 |
| The TBird AVS Series is an
advanced ventilatory system for the ICU. It is the first and only ventilator designed to
move seamlessly with your patient throughout the acute care environment. Employing a
revolutionary turbine technology in a compact, durable and lightweight package, TBird AVS
provides uninterrupted mechanical ventilation for your critically ill patient. No longer
do you need to change ventilators as you move your patient to perform therapeutic or
diagnostic procedures. PATENTED
TURBINE TECHNOLOGY
Unlike most ICU ventilator systems that depend on an air
compressor or a piped air system, TBird AVS is self-contained. Its powerful turbine
technology provides excellent gas delivery without a need for a compressed air source.
This revolutionary new turbine together with an internal and optional external battery
allow the system to be completely independent and mobile. |
