KimVent MAP Closed Suction System

  Marking a significant advancement in the fight against ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), Kimberly-Clark Health Care launched KimVent Multi-Access Port (MAP) Closed Suction System. The new system features a compact rotating manifold with multi-access ports, allowing clinicians to perform suctioning and other procedures, such as bronchoalveolar lavage, bronchoscopy, or MDI drug delivery, while maintaining a closed ventilator circuit.
Designed in collaboration with respiratory therapists, the KimVent MAP Closed Suction System addresses requirements for VAP prevention best practices from the American Association for Respiratory Care, as the system maintains a closed ventilator circuit while allowing for multiple procedures to take place. In addition, the system provides a suction capability with a completely closed airway circuit, thus preventing dangerous environmental contaminants that could potentially cause VAP, enhancing care for both the patient and the caregiver. It also fulfills recommendations as part of a VAP prevention bundle strategy.womens nike shoes
