Luisa®
Life Supporting Ventilation with High Flow Oxygen Therapy
Partnership for:
Better Patient Care
The LUISA® home ventilator is a 3rd generation life-supporting ventilator for the home, and it is for invasive and non-invasive ventilation therapy.
For those that meet the requirements of home ventilation LUISA incorporates two home-based respiratory treatment options in one device. It provides all the standard ventilation modes, including a TTV-VAPS-AE mode, with the added benefit of High Flow Therapy designed for better patient care and comfort.
The TTV-VAPS-AE mode offers unique comfort settings designed for improved patient compliance like:
Sensitive Inspiratory and Expiratory Triggers: Triggers can be set very sensitively due to Inspiratory Lockout Time. Sensitive triggers decrease patient work of breathing and increase patient-ventilator synchrony.
Inspiratory Lockout Time: Allows the patient sufficient time to exhale completely and minimizes false triggers.
Three Target Volume Speeds: Fully adjustable target speeds respond gradually to patients who are sensitive to pressure changes, or quickly to patients whose clinical condition warrants more rapid response.
Pressure Drop: Allows setting the rate of decline from IPAP (inspiratory pressure) to EPAP (expiratory pressure.) When prolonged, this setting increases mean airway pressure, which may provide oxygenation benefits for some respiratory patients.
Flow-Based Algorithm: Flow-based auto-EPAP algorithm allows effective treatment of upper airway obstruction without repeated oscillations, which prioritizes patient comfort.
Auto-Rate Algorithm: A smart algorithm that factors in both the patient’s actual respiratory rate and their minute ventilation averages over the night. This allows LUISA to provide support only when necessary, rather than breathing for the patient and causing decreased patient-ventilator synchrony.
With a combination of unique features , LUISA affords you a reliable, easy-to-use option for your patients.
