QuickLung Breather
A motor-driven spontaneous breathing upgrade for existing QuickLung owners. Adds five breathing pattern modes, adjustable breath parameters, and spontaneous ventilator triggering — without the need to purchase the full Breather System.
- Who is this product designed for?
It is specifically designed for existing QuickLung or QuickLung Junior owners who want to add spontaneous breathing simulation capability without purchasing the full QuickLung Breather System — which includes the QuickLung test lung. - How does it differ from the QuickLung Breather System?
The Breather Option is the base unit only — the QuickLung test lung must already be owned separately. The QuickLung Breather System (3B1025192/3B1025193) includes both the Breather base unit and a QuickLung test lung bundled together. - How quickly can it be set up with an existing QuickLung?
The existing QuickLung or QuickLung Junior mounts onto the Breather base in seconds — no tools required — making the upgrade fast and minimising disruption to training schedules. - What clinical scenarios can be simulated after upgrading?
After upgrading, educators can simulate ARDS, COPD, breath stacking, ventilator dyssynchrony, paediatric asthma exacerbation, and spontaneous breathing weaning scenarios — across five programmable breathing pattern modes. - Does it require an external gas source?
No. The Breather Option runs on standard mains power only — no compressed gas or external air supply is required.
