Puritan Bennett PB 840 | Precision Ventilation for Every Patient

Puritan Bennett PB 840
The Puritan Bennett PB 840 ventilator is a versatile, high-performance respiratory system designed to support a wide range of patients, from neonates to adults, in settings like ICUs and NICUs. It offers both invasive and non-invasive ventilation, with advanced features like Proportional Assist Ventilation (PAV™+) for enhanced patient-ventilator synchrony, Volume Ventilation Plus for guaranteed tidal volume delivery, and a SmartAlert™ Alarm System to prioritize safety. Known for its flexibility, the PB 840 supports multiple ventilation modes (e.g., Assist/Control, SIMV) and can be upgraded, ensuring cost-efficiency and adaptability. Its intuitive DualView™ touchscreen interface, mobility with a cart, and low life-cycle cost make it a reliable choice for critical care.

The Puritan Bennett PB 840, developed by Medtronic, is a flagship ventilator renowned for its adaptability and precision in critical care settings. Engineered to support patients of all ages—neonates, pediatrics, and adults—it offers a comprehensive range of ventilation modes, including invasive, non-invasive, and synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV). Equipped with advanced features like the PAV™+ software, the PB 840 assists clinicians in managing the patient’s work of breathing while promoting more natural breathing patterns compared to conventional ventilation. Its intuitive DualView™ touchscreen interface provides real-time insights into patient respiratory status, such as tidal volume and pressure, allowing for precise therapeutic adjustments. The system also incorporates a high-performance exhalation filter, ensuring protection from contaminants to enhance patient and clinician safety. With a robust, customizable design, the PB 840 meets the diverse demands of any ICU, earning its status as a trusted choice for hospitals worldwide. Its compact design and integrated battery backup further ensure reliable performance during patient transport or power disruptions.
