LTV VENTILATOR MANUAL

WHAT IS A VENTILATOR?
A ventilator is a small, portable machine that moves air in and out of the lungs of children who have trouble
breathing on their own. Ventilators connect to your child through plastic tubing, called the ventilator circuit.
This ventilator circuit then connects to their trach.
The ventilator is used to help your child with breathing. The length of time your child stays on the ventilator
will depend on their condition; some children need support for only a few hours of the day, some children need
support only during the night, and some children need the ventilator for 24 hours a day.
