QuickTrigger Module
A retrofit add-on module for the IngMar Medical QuickLung. Simulates physiologically correct patient inspiratory effort using negative pressure, and provides lower and upper inflection points for ventilator performance testing and training
- What does the QuickTrigger simulate?
It simulates a physiologically correct patient inspiratory effort using negative pressure — allowing the QuickLung to trigger a real ventilator just as a spontaneously breathing patient would, without requiring the full QuickLung Breather system.
- How does it differ from the QuickLung Breather Option?
The QuickTrigger is a simple, non-electric pneumatic device that provides manual trigger simulation and inflection points — making it a more affordable entry point for trigger training. The QuickLung Breather adds motorised spontaneous breathing with five programmable breathing patterns and full parameter customisation.
- Is it compatible with all QuickLung models?
Yes. The QuickTrigger retrofits onto both the QuickLung Adult and QuickLung Junior in seconds without tools — and is also compatible with the Fluke Biomedical ACCULUNG precision test lung.
- What are inflection points and why do they matter for training?
Inflection points represent the pressures at which lung compliance changes — lower inflection marks where alveoli begin to open, and upper inflection marks where overdistension begins. Training learners to identify and respond to these points is essential for lung-protective ventilation strategies such as optimal PEEP setting.
- Does it require a power source or gas supply?
No. The QuickTrigger is a non-electric, purely pneumatic device — no power source or external gas supply is required, making it simple to use in any training environment.
