As a modern universal ventilator for invasive and non-invasive applications, even the basic version of elisa 500 features the unique tandem sensors, transpulmonary pressure measurement, CuffScout and high-flow oxygen therapy. A variety of hardware and software options are available as a modular system.

elisa 600 is an innovative standard breathing ventilator for invasive and non-invasive artificial respiration in the case of all clinical conditions, for all intensive care activities and for patients weighing 2,0 kg and more. A variety of hardware and software options allow for individual configuration to be made according to the requirements at hand, as well as providing for an artificial respiration platform that is assured a good future.

Until recently, there was a gap between scientific evidence and clinical practice in intensive care ventilation. Inadequate technical options and nontransparent evaluation of measurement results frequently stood in the way of the desired treatment. In many cases, the available procedures simply were not sufficient for broad, yet dependable use.

Drawing on more than 25 years of experience, Löwenstein Medical is now making the impossible a reality: Intensive care ventilation – simple, clear and verifiable. The simple solution adds safety, reduces training needs, and allows for the broad use of ventilation strategies. It is economical, minimizes operating errors, and gives you more time to focus on the essential.

elisa 800 stands for simplifying complexity.

VIT – Ventilator Integrated Tomography is the world‘s first fully integrated EIT system in an intensive care ventilator. The non-invasive pulmonary monitoring of the elisa 800VIT visualizes for the first time ventilation-related complications and allows for direct therapy at the intensive care ventilator. As a result, ventilation becomes transparent as well as directly controllable.

ALPHA. INDIVIDUAL AIRWAY MANAGEMENT THROUGH IPPB THERAPY.

ALPHA 300 AND ALPHA 301/302 – THE IPPB DEVICE THAT IMPROVES VENTILATION THROUGH RECRUITMENT

Respiratory therapy with intermittent positive pressure breathing (IPPB therapy) is a recognized treatment concept for obstructive respiratory disease. In case of heavily reduced ventilation reserves or pronounced respiratory failure, it is recommended to administer aerosols through inhalation.

The slow, deep inspiration supported by the respiratory therapy device always improves pulmonary ventilation, gas exchange, and aerosol deposition. The optional, adjustable exhalation stricture contributes to this as well by ensuring that poorly ventilated peripheral lung segments receive a better gas supply. This in turn has prophylactic effects, since good ventilation is the best preventative measure against infection. Furthermore, IPPB therapy can be supplemented with drug nebulization, such as bronchospasmolytic or secretolytic substances, for obstructive disease

Managing secretion

Another positive effect of IPPB therapy is the cough reflex it provokes, which can significantly improve the bronchial hygiene and secretolysis of patients. In addition to portable respiratory and aerosol therapy devices alpha 300 for home care, the alpha product family also includes two clinical versions (alpha 301/302), which are designed to administer oxygen via a central gas supply. As a consequence, the devices are perfectly suited to provide continued IPPB therapy for recruitment, secretion management, and drug nebulization in acute care as well as physiotherapy and general care.

APPLICATION AREAS OF THE IPPB THERAPY DEVICES:

alpha 301 und alpha 302:

• - Application in intensive care units, IMC, general care units and in anethesia
• - Suitable for applications involving IPPB therapy

alpha 300:

• - Application in general care units and in home care
• - Suitable for applications involving IPPB therapy

ADVANTAGES OF THE ALPHA 300 AND ALPHA 301/302 IPPB THERAPY DEVICES:

• - Sensitive trigger range
• - Integrated drug nebuliser
• - Compact IPPB device for adult and pediatric use
• - Infinitely adjustable exhalation stricture
• - Manual control option
• - Operation with central gas supply (alpha 301/302)
• - Optional oxygen connection (alpha 301/302)

CPAP therapy in the 21st century

charisma is a state-of-the art device for constant positive airway pressure therapy.

• - Coloured touch screen: intuitive user guidance
• - Automatic flow adjustment and adaption
• - Unique: no reservoir bag needed
• - Dynamic leakage compensation
• - Cost efficiency by low gas consumption
• - Drug nebulizer

Direct input of oxygen concentration and PEEP

Gas mixture tables, readjustment of flow and uncertainties in mask leakages are things of the past. The user enters directly PEEP and oxygen concentration. charisma verifies the ventilation accessories used and guaranties the secure compliance of the parameters set.

Dynamic compensation of leakage

Older CPAP equipment, working with Continuous-Flow- Principle, had to be adjusted manually to the gas flows offered in order to compensate variable mask leakages. When the supply of flow was too low, the set PEEP value could not be realised and the danger of alveolar collapse appeared. charisma combines the established Demand- Flow with the Continuous-Flow-Principle, readjusts the necessary flow continuously and controls the PEEP set.

Individual alarm settings

There are fundamental differences in monitoring requirements of intensive care units, outpatient departments, wards and therapy wards. charisma allows the alarm adaption to the necessities of the clinical routine. Thereby requirements of apnea, alarms of low and high pressure values and alarm volume are directly adjustable via touch screen

Innovative monitoring of leakage according to “traffic light principle”

charisma monitors existing mask leakages without interruption and adapts the inspiration flow consecutively. According to the traffic light, leakages are displayed visually and easily comprehensible.

LM Flow 100 – High-Flow therapy system with integrated humidifier

The LM Flow Series stands out from the rest with its simple operation, integrated oxygen monitoring which uses no consumables, and adjustable alarms. The ventilators provide a constant flow of air which is conditioned by the integrated humidifier. The treated gas can be delivered via a nasal highflow cannula directly into the tracheostomy with the help of a tracheostomy adapter.

The LM Flow 100 works with an air-mix technology that allows the user to set the desired oxygen concentration via the display. The device delivers a constant flow rate from 2 to 80 liters/minute that reduces the work of breathing by flooding the nasopharyngeal dead space and thus increases the patient‘s breathing efficiency in the acute phas

Your Benefits with the LM Flow 100:

• - Automatic FiO2 control via blender module
• - Touch screen display
• - Humidifier chamber with auto-fill

Your Benefits in High-Flow Therapy:

• - Flushing of nasopharyngeal dead space
• - Reduction in respiratory effort
• - Humidification and warming of airways, which improves mucociliary clearance
• - Improvement in oxygenation
