COVER STORY<br />

Stephan EVE Ventilators bring intensive care ventilation performance to pre-hospital<br />

transport and transfers.<br />

EVE Ventilators are fully independent of mains power or dependence on compressed air.<br />

With inbuilt air-turbine, 8-hour battery use plus ‘hot-swappable 4-hour battery packs for<br />

extended use, lightweight, compact, designed for hospital, intra-hospital transport and<br />

pre-hospital transport. With various ventilator brackets and mounts to support use within<br />

road ambulances, medical helicopter, and medical aircraft.<br />

In an emergency when every second counts; Stephan EVE Ventilators have FAST<br />

‘Safe-Start’ buttons ensuring pre-programmed patient readiness to ventilate at the push<br />

of a button to rapidly deploy safe and optimum ventilation for Neonates, Infants or Paed/<br />

Adults. The pre-use safety checks from power on are completed in 70 seconds; without<br />

the need for any human interaction, the self-test also checks the attached patient circuit<br />

for compliance in use.<br />
