Hamilton T1 Transport Ventilator

The HAMILTON-T1 combines for the first time the functionality of a fully featured intensive care unit ventilator with the compactness and ruggedness required for transport. This combination enables you to provide optimal ventilation therapy to all patient groups during transport.

The HAMILTON-T1 offers:

• Approvals and certificates for use in ambulances, helicopters and airplanes
• Adult, pediatric, and optional neonatal ventilation
• Independence from gas cylinders or compressors
• More than 9 hours of battery operating time
• Noninvasive ventilation and optional integrated high flow oxygen therapy
• Advanced ventilation modes, including ASV® – Adaptive Support Ventilation

The Hamilton T1 Transport Ventilator meets the transport standards EN 794-3 and ISO 10651-3 for emergency and transport ventilators, EN 1789 for ambulances, and both EN 13718-1 and RTCA/DO-160G for aircrafts. It reliably accompanies your patients in or outside the hospital, on the ground, at sea, or in the air.

The integrated high-performance turbine enables the HAMILTON-T1 to be completely independent from compressed air. This reduces weight and saves space, since you need neither gas cylinders nor a compressor. This allows even patients ventilated noninvasively to be transported successfully across greater distances.

A battery operating time of more than 9 hours is provided by one integrated and one hot-swappable battery. The battery operating time can be extended as required with additional hot-swappable batteries.

In close cooperation with users and ventilation experts, our engineers have designed a user interface that is particularly intuitive. Switching between the HAMILTON-T1 and all other Hamilton
Medical ventilators is easy because they are all operated according to the same principles. The Ventilation Cockpit on the HAMILTON-T1 consolidates the monitoring data and displays it as intuitive graphics. These provide a quick overview of the patient’s current ventilation status and provide a reliable basis for therapy decisions.

The HAMILTON-T1 features the Intelligent Ventilation mode Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV). In ASV mode, the ventilator continuously adjusts the respiratory rate, tidal volume, and inspiratory time depending on the patient’s lung mechanics and effort. This means fewer user interactions are required and fewer alarms are generated, giving you more time for your patients. ASV automatically employs lung-protective strategies to minimize complications from AutoPEEP and volutrauma/barotrauma. It also prevents apnea, tachypnea, dead space ventilation, and excessively large breaths, as well as encouraging the patient to breathe spontaneously.

Ventilators are classified as life-critical systems so reliability is the primary concern when selecting one.
