The Sinusoidal Bronchotron is totally independent of any electrical source (NO BATTERIES), using a standard clinical oxygen or air supply to cycle the ventilator as well as to ventilate the patient with a proven reliability “equal to or better than” any existing pulmonary ventilatory device. It is: 1. Powered by any 50- 80 psi. respiratory gas source (from wall or cylinders) which is then internally regulated to OPERATIONAL GAS PRESSURES from 30 to 45 psig for recruiting and stabilizing neonatal through pediatric to large adult lungs. Programming allows mechanical ventilation, through invasive or non-invasive airways, with continuous patient assist/control breathe through. 2.
