Ventilation
Each model of the ZOLL 731 Series of Ventilators is indicated for use in the management of
infant through adult patients weighing greater than or equal to 5 kg with acute or chronic
respiratory failure or during resuscitation by providing continuous positive-pressure
ventilation. ZOLL Ventilators are appropriate for use in hospitals, outside the hospital, during
transport and in severe environments where they may be exposed to rain, dust, rough handling,
and extremes in temperature and humidity. With an appropriate third-party filter in place, they
may be operated in environments where chemical and/or biological toxins are present. When
marked with an "MRI conditional" label, ZOLL Ventilators are suitable for use in an MRI
environment with appropriate precautions. ZOLL Ventilators are
not
intended to operate in
explosive environments. ZOLL Ventilators are intended for use by skilled care providers with
knowledge of mechanical ventilation, emergency medical services (EMS) personnel with a
basic knowledge of mechanical ventilation, and by first responders under the direction of
skilled medical care providers
