Beyond the Vent: ZOLL
100

This pressure maintains airway patenancy and helps improve oxygenation during NIV.

What is EPAP?

100

This bellavista NIV mode delivers two pressure levels and provides a back up rate.

What is S/T mode?

100

This bellavista technology automatically adapts triggering and cycling to improve patient-ventilator synchrony.

What is Auto-sync?

100

This is the size, in inches, of the bellavista Select screen.

What is 13.3 inches?

100

ZOLL is widely known for these lifesaving devices that deliver electrical shocks to treat certain life-threatening cardiac rhythms.

What are defibrillators?

200

The difference between IPAP and EPAP determines this component of bilevel pressure support

What is pressure support?

200

This bellavista mode is comparable to AVAPS on the Philips V60.

What is S/T Target?

200

Bellavista provides leak compensation up to this flow rate, measured in liters per minute.

What is 120 l/min?

200

In addition to NIV and invasive ventilation, bellavista Select supports this third type of respiratory therapy.

What is high-flow oxygen therapy?

200

This ZOLL wearable device monitors patients at risk of sudden cardiac death and can deliver treatment when needed.

What is LifeVest?

300
A patient has an IPAP of 18 and an EPAP of 8. This is the resulting pressure support?

What is 10 cm of H2O?

300

In a volume-targeted pressure support mode, the ventilator adjusts this parameter to help achieve the desired tidal volume?

What is pressure support or inspiratory pressure?

300

This single-limb circuit configuration uses an intentional leak port rather than an active expiratory valve.

What is a passive circuit?

300

Bellavista support these two main circuit configurations for NIV.

What is single-limb and dual-limb?

300

This ZOLL device provides automated mechanical chest compressions during cardiac arrest.

What is AutoPulse?

400

These measurements are used to assess how effectively a patient is ventilating?

What are pH and pC02?

400
This bellavista therapy delivers heated, humidified oxygen at high flow rates without providing conventional mechanical breaths.

What is high-flow oxygen therapy?

400

A patient is attempting to initiate breaths, but the ventilator is not consistently recognizing their efforts. This type of asynchrony is occuring.

What is ineffective triggering or patient-ventilator dyssynchrony?

400

This bellavista feature family includes advanced modes that adjust ventilatory support toward clinician-selected targets.

What is Target Vent?

400

This ZOLL temperature management technology uses an intravascular approach to help control patient temperature.

What is Thermogard?

500

A COPD patient on S/T continues to have elevated PaCO2 and inadequate tidal volumes. Changing to this mode may help.

What is S/T target?

500

In a volume-targeted NIV mode, this setting establishes the upper boundary for the pressure the ventilator may deliver.

What is IPAP max?

500

A large mask leak causes the ventilator to deliver breaths without patient effort. This type of asynchrony is called

What is auto-triggering?

500

This ZOLL data platform can collect, store, and display retrospective bellavista ventilation information.

What is Respiratory Knowledge Portal (RKP)?

500

This ZOLL implantable therapy stimulates the phrenic nerve to treat moderate to severe central sleep apnea in eligible adults.

What is the Remede system?
