No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of the VersaMed iVent ventilator in the acute care setting, hypothesizing that, in comparison to the standard approach, the use of the VersaMed will facilitate transport and reduce transport-associated complications while providing equivalent ventilatory support and transport success rates for both intubated patients and patients receiving noninvasive ventilation.
