Expert to Share Knowledge and Best Practices on Non-invasive
Ventilation
SINGAPORE, June 9 /PRNewswire-Asia/ --
Draeger, a Germany-based company with 120 years of innovation in
ventilation, will be participating in ICEM 2010, the International
Conference on Emergency Medicine in Singapore on 9 -- 12 June at
the Suntec International Convention & Exhibition Centre
Singapore.
To support medical professionals enlarging
their knowledge on NIV, Draeger will share practical experiences in
emergency care ventilation at ICEM. Mr Michael Rodda, a
leading Draeger expert in the field of ventilation in emergency
medicine and a former Registered Nurse with more than 20 years of
experience in both clinical practice and equipment expertise, will
share insights on how NIV can benefit patients as well as practical
ideas to improve success rate with NIV during his talk on 10
June.
Mr Andreas Frahm, President, Draeger Medical
Region Asia Pacific, said, "Technology has always played a key role
in emergency medicine to ensure accurate diagnosis and adequate
stabilization of a patient prior to definitive treatment. In
respiratory emergencies, non-invasive ventilation (NIV) can help to
prevent or delay intubation, therefore minimizing complications
associated with invasive ventilation. Patients not only experience
enhanced therapy and better care, but also can be treated safely
during transportation. The result is improved outcomes and a more
confident team of healthcare professionals. With this talk on
non-invasive ventilation, Draeger hopes to contribute to the
development of emergency medicine in collaboration with the
participants at ICEM 2010."

Draeger will showcase its latest NIV
equipment that are being used in emergency departments all over the
world, including the Oxylog(R) 3000 plus, the latest model of the
Oxylog(R) series, which is designed to be used in both hospital and
outdoor environments. Its robustness and transportability, in
combination with the wide range of ventilation modes and monitoring
options, supports patient care with improved outcomes.
Manufacturer of the Oxylog(R) ventilator
series is Draeger Medical AG & Co. KG, Germany.
