EXIST-Forschungstransfer - BreatheAssist ist ein neuartiges Intensiv-Beatmungsgerät, das es Patienten erlaubt, frühzeitig wieder selbst zu atmen und drängende Probleme wie Desynchronisation, unnatürliche Atemarbeit und geräteinduzierte Lungenschäden vermeiden soll. Dies ermöglicht damit erstmals eine maximal lungenschonendeSpontanatmung.
