The document discusses Flow Ventilation technology, which was developed by Dr. Forrest M. Bird and has been saving lives in critical care settings for many years. It is now being used across various areas of respiratory care, including ICU, NICU/PICU, transport/military, therapeutic care, and home care. Several studies are cited showing benefits of Flow Ventilation such as reduced time in the ICU, less incidence of pneumonia, improved oxygenation and lung management, and reduced time requiring technologies like ECMO. The director of the Bird Institute of Pulmonary Care invites the reader to join in advancing pulmonary care through research on Flow Ventilation.

your invitation to make a difference. Our friend Dr. Forrest M. Birds innovative Flow Ventilation technology has been saving the most fragile patients in acute care settings for many years. Drawing on his drive and legacy of innovation, Im very pleased to bring that very same technology home with the Travel Air. Im inviting you to join us in advancing the world of pulmonary care through collaborative studies, research and continued innovation. By documenting the benefits we bring to our patients, we can improve the quality of life for millions who suffer from pulmonary disease. I look forward to speaking with you about how we can make a difference and change everything together. Loel Fenwick, M.D. Director, Bird Institute of Pulmonary Care REPS join us!
Flow Ventilation is saving and improving lives today Dr. Forrest M. Bird revolutionized the world of respiratory care. His innovative Flow Ventilation technology has been saving lives in adult, pediatric and neonatal critical care as well as military and transport applications for nearly 30 years. Today, Flow Ventilation is helping save and improve lives across the entire spectrum of respiratory care: ICU Flow Ventilation (also known as IPV速 or HFPV) has been shown to provide improved oxygenation and lung protection in critically ill patients with ARDS, without sacrificing effective CO2 removal and without the drawbacks associated with conventional ventilation. Flow Ventilation has unique benefits for patients with severe burns and inhalation injuries. Recent studies have shown that Flow Ventilation can dramatically reduce the length of time that patients may require membrane oxygenation or ECMO. NICU / PICU The unique automatic clutching ability of the Phasitron速 makes Flow Ventilation ideal for the especially sensitive lungs of children and neonates.
TRANSPORT / MILITARY Flow Ventilation with ventilators developed by Dr. Bird specifically for the military have helped save numerous soldiers lives during transport from battlefield medical units to major trauma centers. The unique characteristics of Flow Ventilation with fully pneumatic drive units and the Phasitron make it ideally suited for use in airplanes and helicopters. The same technology enabled thousands of critically ill babies to be safely transported from one hospital to another. THERAPEUTIC CARE Utilizing the percussive micro-oxygenation concept of Birdian Flow, Flow Ventilation enables improved clearance of secretions while supporting lung recruitment and gas exchange in a highly lung-protective manner. These benefits are available to patients of all ages, from neonates to elderly COPD patients. HOME CARE The newest generation of Flow Ventilation devices makes the benefits of this unique therapy available to patients in ambulatory and home-care settings. Designed for maximum therapeutic effectiveness combined with ease of use and simple maintenance, the Travel Air速 sets new standards for home respirator therapy to improve the quality of patients lives and help reduce the number of hospital readmissions.
