types of respiratory protective equipment

Breathing ventilator is the most common word we hear in the news recently. So, how important is the breathing ventilator machine in the treatment of new coronary pneumonia, and how is it used for treatment? Today, let's take a brief look at it.





For critically ill patients, breathing ventilator machine therapy is an indispensable option.



1. What is a Breathing Ventilator Machine?

The breathing ventilator machine is an effective method that can artificially replace autonomous ventilation. It has been widely used in respiratory failure, respiratory support treatment and emergency resuscitation caused by various reasons. It occupies a very important position in the field of modern medicine. The breathing ventilator machine is divided into invasive and non-invasive breathing ventilator machine. Invasive breathing ventilator machine is what we call tracheal intubation. The invasive breathing ventilator machine is generally used for the patient who has been unable to maintain respiratory function or has respiratory failure. The non invasive ventilator does not cause any wounds to the patient. While greatly reducing the risk of infection, it can also cooperate with the patient's spontaneous breathing to maintain a stable blood oxygen saturation. It is mostly used in the treatment stage to help patients reduce the burden on their lungs and improve their own blood gas oxygenation indicators.



2. What is the Role of the Medical Ventilator in COVID-19 Treatment?

In the pneumonia epidemic caused by the new coronavirus, breathing ventilator machine (invasive and non-invasive breathing ventilator machine) play a very important role. The new coronavirus can damage lung function and produce a large amount of mucus in the lungs, which hinders the absorption of oxygen, reduces the saturation concentration of blood oxygen, and further harms the body. The role of the breathing ventilator machine is to transport oxygen through the body to ensure the oxygen content in the blood, maintain the life activity needs of critically ill patients, and buy time for more clinical treatment methods.



In this new crown pneumonia epidemic, both invasive and non-invasive breathing ventilator machine have played a great role. According to data from the World Health Organization, one in six patients with new coronary disease will have severe illness and breathing difficulties. The lungs of severely ill patients are injured by the virus and cannot breathe spontaneously. The oxygen content in the body drops, so they have to use breathing ventilator machine. If a severely ill patient with respiratory failure does not use the breathing ventilator machine in time, he will not be able to get effective life support, which is easy to further deteriorate the condition and then die. That is why the breathing ventilators are so popular among countries.
