Neonatal Transport / MRI Ventilator

The pNeuton mini is a small, lightweight pneumatic transport ventilator designed for use on neonates to pediatric in size (400 gram to 25 kg). It is a time cycled, flow limited ventilator.

The pNeuron mini is intended to provide ventilator support for critically ill patients who require the following types of ventilator support:

• Positive pressure ventilation delivered invasively (via an ET Tube) or noninvasively (via a mask or nasal prongs)
• CMV and IMV mode of ventilation with or without PEEP / CPAP
• Provide oxygen or a mixture of medical air and oxygen. Oxygen delivered is adjustable from 21-100 percent.

The pNeuton mini is a pneumatic ventilator. Owing to its design, there are no MRI artifacts seen generally with electronic devices.

The pNeuton mini is powered by the air/oxygen tank pressure during transport and via the air/oxygen outlets available within the MRI exam room. Switching between the tanks and the outlets is possible within seconds with the use of quick connect-disconnect hoses.
