Background and Identification
Manufactured in Lübeck, Germany for over 25 years, the Drager Evita is a compact, highly efficient ventilator system. The device can be identified by the large digital monitor displaying patient readings with a large knob in the bottom right corner, its central unit with a translucent blue covering, and its four wheels on the bottom of the unit for mobility. The model number and device name are featured prominently on a plaque on the front of the unit.
The Drager Evita unit operates in the typical non-invasive ventilator fashion, mechanically pumping oxygen into and out of the airways of a patient under intensive care. The Evita system is designed for intensive respiratory support for patients of all ages in any size of health care facility. Additionally, the compact size and integral trolley allow the Evita system to be highly mobile, and it can be easily transported to wherever the unit is needed.
