Frequently Asked Questions

What are the Indications for Use?

The SAVe II+ are intended to provide ventilatory support for adults during CPR or when Positive-Pressure Ventilation (PPV) is required to manage Acute Respiratory Failure (ARF) or other situations where mechanical ventilation is needed. The SAVe II+ is appropriate for adults that weigh at least 45 kg. It is intended to be used in pre-hospital, field hospitals, outpatient environments, hospitals, ICU’s, transport environments or any other healthcare environment requiring the use of a ventilator.

How does SAVe II+ compare to a typical ICU ventilator?

The SAVe II+ is a time-cycled, volume-targeted and pressure-limited ventilator that uses height presets to dial in 6 ml/kg. Like an ICU ventilator, the SAVe II+ has adjustable TV, RR, PIP and PEEP and has an array of alarms. However, the SAVe II+ has a narrower range of settings, has a fixed I:E ratio of 1:2, and does not have multiple modes of operation.

What’s the difference between the SAVe II and SAVe II+?

The SAVe II+ delivers up to 12.5 LPM (vs 8 LPM) of minute ventilation and up to 20 cmH2O of PEEP vs 10 cmH2O provided by the SAVe II.

Can oxygen be titrated to the patient?

Yes, the SAVe II accepts low pressure supplemental oxygen. By manually varying the flow of oxygen from a regulated tank, the wall or oxygen concentrator, FIO2 can range from 21-100%.

What are the SAVe II+ ventilator specifications?

Tidal Volume 200-800mL, Respiratory Rate 8 - 30, PIP 10 - 60 cmH2O, PEEP 0 - 20 cmH2O, Battery lasts for up to 10 hours. Please see the Operators Manual for full specifications.

FDA Regulatory and EUA

The original SAVe II was cleared by the FDA in 2014. The SAVe II+, which is authorized by the FDA under an emergency use authorization (EUA), uses a more capable motor to deliver up to 12 LPM of air and can generate up to 20 cmH2O of PEEP. The EUA was issued in response to concerns relating to insufficient supply and availability of FDA-cleared ventilators for use in healthcare settings to treat patients during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
