Patient ventilation with minimal impact and maximal control.
FCV® Technology a unique mode of optimising and meticulously control gas flow throughout the ventilation cycle, minimizing mechanical impact on patients lungs and providing lung protecting ventilation at its best.
In 1952 the polio epidemic in Denmark triggered a paradigm shift in artificial ventilation. Iron lungs were abandoned in favor of Positive Pressure Ventilation. During the following decades the underlying concept of Positive Pressure Ventilation was never questioned.
Today after 70 years of struggling with the limitations and sometimes fatal consequences of conventional positive pressure ventilation it is time for another paradigm shift based on physics and physiology.
Our new one-of-a-kind ventilator carefully designed and built to also be precise measurement tool, allows the clinician to perfectly adapt the ventilation to the individual needs for the patient.
It implements FCV® a unique mode of optimising and meticulously control gas flow throughout the ventilation cycle, minimizing mechanical impact on patients lungs and providing lung protecting ventilation at its best.
We can ventilate so much better.
Stable Inhalation and Controlled Exhalation
FCV® technology creates a stable gas flow during inspiration followed by a unique active gas flow control during expiration. Flow Controlled Ventilation.
Dynamic, Linear Flow Without Pressure Drops
FCV® technology maintains a fully dynamic flow, without pauses, with linear changes in both volume and pressure. There are no sudden drops in intrathoracic pressure due to the unique active controlled expiration.
100% Control Through Every Breathing Phase
Unlike conventional ventilators (“inspiration assist devices“) relying on a passive expiration, FCV® technology provides a Fully Controlled Ventilation (100% of the ventilation cycle)
High Efficiency in Small Diameters
FCV® is a more efficient ventilation as compared to conventional modes, allows ventilation through small lumens (~2 mm ID) and results in less energy dissipation in the lungs.
