Overall program requirements target reduction of time on mechanical ventilation for qualifying patients* with Puritan BennettTM Ventilator and PAVTM+ Software


The Problem

The incidence of patient-ventilator asynchrony is COMMON

25% of all mechanically ventilated patients suffer from significant asynchrony1

Learn More

The Impact

The incidence of patient-ventilator asynchrony is COSTLY

Patients on mechanical ventilation account for 37% of all ICU costs1

Learn More

The Impact

The incidence of patient-ventilator asynchrony is DEBILITATING

Patients with significant asynchrony are ventilated 6-18 days longer3,4.

The Solution

Facilities participating in Option 3 of the Outcomes Pledge Program, will collaborate with Medtronic to target a half day reduction in time on mechanical ventilation for qualifying patients.

Medtronic defines a qualifying patient as an adult patient with previously diagnosed COPD who is ventilated more than 72 hours on a Puritan BennettTM Ventilator and PAVTM+ Software
