VDR®-4

The VDR®-4  s designed specifically for hospital use. The Volumetric Diffusive Respirator unit (VDR®-4) is a flow-regulated and time-cycled ventilator that provides high-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV).

This HFPV system supports both diffusive and convective flow by stacking breaths in cumulative subtidal volumes, allowing for air exchange, airway clearance, and lung recruitment for most hospital patient populations, neonatal to adult.  The VDR®-4 can be used to treat respiratory conditions including hypoxemia, hypercapnia, aspiration, smoke inhalation, and ARDS. This unit is paired with the Monitron® II Waveform Analyzer, which provides accurate, real-time visual waveform, pressures, and alarms, making the VDR®-4 a versatile tool for critical and intensive care respiratory ventilation.
