Vents_Percussionaire_Phasitron-160By keeping the lung open to the atmosphere, Percussionaire’s Flow Ventilation protects lungs from pressure-induced injury. Developed by Dr Forrest M. Bird, Percussionaire’s unique open-circuit air acceleration/delivery system, the Phasitron, bathes the alveoli in fresh oxygenated air while gently washing out CO2 and secretions. Flow ventilation reduces exacerbations, pneumonia, invasive ventilation, and time in the ICU and is the foremost remover of mucus and debris. It is known as the “rescue ventilator” for severe ARDS, explosive barotrauma, smoke inhalation, and other critical lung conditions. 208-263-2549 ext 111; www.percussionaire.com
