Intensive care ventilator for MRI patients
The HAMILTON-MR1 is a fully featured ICU ventilator that provides respiratory support to the adult and paediatric critical-care patient in the direct vicinity of an MRI scanner. With its compact design, internal batteries and its built-in turbine, it provides maximum flexibility during transportation from the ICU to the MRI department. The integrated gaussmeter helps navigation through the magnetic field and allows safe positioning of the ventilator. It is shielded to withstand a magnetic field of 50mT, which corresponds to a distance of less than 1m from a 3T MRI scanner. The patient can be optimally synchronised with the ventilator, which minimises the work of breathing. The ventilator supplies all advanced modes of ventilation and offers non-invasive performance.
