“Trilogy100 limited launch feedback” (RIT.CLIN.005.E):
2 questionnaires have been distributed to each centre during Trilogy limited launch: a questionnaire to be filled in by the patient and a questionnaire to be filled in by the physician/nurse. This paper gathers the feedback from 13 patient questionnaires and 15 physician questionnaires and presents the data through 2 graphs.

 “4 real clinical cases (RIT.CLIN.006.E) from Germany, Spain and Belgium”
These clinical cases are being described to share experience on Trilogy100 and demonstrate how clinicians can benefit from Trilogy unique feature in their daily clinical practice.

“A bench study comparison of volume delivery in the presence of leak”
These white papers are an internal bench studies comparing the tidal volume that is delivered to the patient with and without a leak introduced in both the Trilogy100 and the LTV1200 or Elisée150.

The Trilogy is able to maintain the same tidal volume no matter the leak either around a mask or a trach, due to its leak compensation capabilities.

“A complicated ventilation patient with Kyphoscoliosis” (RIT.CLIN.008.E)
The following White Paper focuses on a real clinical case attended by Prof De Backer from Antwerp Hospital in Belgium. In this case, an obese patient with Kyphoscoliosis and COPD was found to be inadequately ventilated during a routine follow-up visit (PaCO2 of 61mmHg) when ventilated with a standard device in pressure support mode, and transitioned onto the Trilogy100. The White Paper describes the different steps that Dr De Backer then took to stabilize the patient on ventilation, highlighting the versatility of the Trilogy100 and the application of DirectView and Alice PDX polygraph to analyze patient ventilator synchronization so a more informed mode selection can be made.

“A Comparison of Volume Control Ventilation Delivered By the Trilogy Ventilator with   a Passive Exhalation Device versus Conventional Mechanical Ventilators with an Active Exhalation Device” Jasko, J., Witt, C.
The Objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of Trilogy in volume mode configured with the passive circuit as compared to conventional mechanical ventilators using a circuit with a valve. 5 adult stable patients requiring mechanical ventilation through a tracheostomy or endotracheal tube were enrolled

Blood gases, hemodynamic and respiratory variables following one hour use periods of the participant’s current ventilator and the Trilogy ventilator did not show any significant differences.

The Author concluded that when providing volume therapy modes, the Trilogy ventilator with a passive exhalation device provides equivalent therapeutic ventilation as compared with the participants’ standard, approved ventilator.
