Ventilator
A ventilator is a medical device that helps people breathe when they cannot do so effectively on their own. It delivers oxygen-rich air into the lungs and removes carbon dioxide. Often used in hospitals for patients with respiratory illnesses, such as pneumonia or COVID-19, ventilators can operate in different modes, depending on a patient’s needs. They can support patients during surgery or in critical care, ensuring vital breathing support when necessary. While they are essential for life-saving treatments, using a ventilator can be complex and requires close supervision by healthcare professionals.
