LUNG PROTECTIVE TAPE


I'm currently prototyping a new Idea. I'm designing a 76 inch (193 cm) measuring tape and adding 6 Lung protective tables to it.
Think of it as a "Broselow Tape" for adults in regards to lung protective ventilation which can be used with any mechanical ventilator.
Tables may assist in setting optimal set-points on the mechanical ventilator. tables include;

  • Predicted minute ventilation based on Ideal body weight.
  • Ideal body weight and tidal per ml.
  • Minimum inspiratory time setting.
  • Minimum expiratory time setting.
  • Pressure control setting for targeting tidal volume per Ideal body weight.
  • I-time related to set frequency & duty cycle. 
For the more information on the "Lung Protective Tape" please sign up for my news letter
