Critically ill patients on acute care ventilators often need MRI exams.  Yet strong magnetic fields severely limit the types of medical devices that can be nearby. Transferring patients out of the ICU and changing mechanical ventilators during transport can increase complications due to disconnection and lack of sophisticated ventilator support.

The SERVO-i MR Environmental Option from MAQUET can provide optimal ventilator support for any critically ill patient during MRI procedures. To find more, request the MAQUET report, "Bridging the ICU and MRI Suite with Advance Ventilator Support."
