title: Breath of fresh air. Our evaluation of 10 intensive care ventilators.
abstract: Many of the intensive care ventilators on the market today are equipped with advanced features, including features that can help wean patients more effectively and ones that can help clinicians assess a patient's status at a glance. We examine how clinically effective these advanced features have proven to be, and rate 10 units from six suppliers.
