The A5's user interface and ergonomic design simplify workflow. The 15" touch screen allows clinicians to easily select ventilation settings, so less time is spent maneuvering and more time is spent on patient care. The A5 provides a range of advanced ventilation modes that enable effective care across the full range of patient acuity types. Integrated spirometry provides additional information and enhances careful decision making.
The ancillary oxygen/air flow meters deliver mixed gas through the nasal cannula, allowing the clinician to maintain their preferred clinical practice without an increased risk of surgical fire. The A5 conforms to the IHE (Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise) profile of the patient care domain (PCD). A5 is capable of generating data in the industry standard HL7 protocol. HL7 with the IHE PCD profile is recognized by anesthesia information systems and electronic medical records (EMR) as the proven industry standard for unambiguous interoperability.
