The Carefusion LTV 1200 ventilator's ease of use and versatility helps ensure optimal patient care across clinical settings. Whether in the ICU, PICU, ED or Patient Transport, the LTV 1200 has the flexibility to adapt to changing respiratory needs. And at a fraction of the size of comparably equipped systems, the LTV 1200 moves seamlessly with the patient.

Product Features

Ventilator Presets allow for quick setup of new patients. Clinicians simply select the patient type at start up, and the LTV 1200 automatically configures the initial ventilation settings for Infant, Pediatric or Adult patients.  The LTV 1200's intuitive interface features color coded controls and alarms. Active controls and alarms are illuminated for easy identification of ventilation parameters.

Flexible Therapy Options

Invasive and Non-Invasive modes of ventilation for patients as small as 5kg.  The LTV 1200 provides a wide range of ventilation therapies to meet demanding patient needs, including Volume Control, Pressure Control, Pressure Support and Spontaneous breath types. Non-Invasive ventilation can be setup quickly. The LTV 1200 will prompt the clinician to set the desired inspiratory and expiratory pressure levels to begin non-invasive ventilation.

Weaning Assessment Tools

The LTV 1200 features an innovative Spontaneous Breathing Trial, which utilizes Rapid Shallow Breathing Index (RSBI) criteria to assess a patient's ability to be weaned from mechanical ventilation. Clinicians can customize Spontaneous Breathing Trial settings to each individual patient, ensuring optimal levels of support throughout the weaning process.

Enhanced Monitoring Capabilities

The LTV 1200 provides clinicians with even more comprehensive monitoring of critical patient-ventilator interaction when used with the optional LTM Graphics Monitor.

The LTM Graphics Monitoring package display is real-time Pressure, Flow and Volume curves with adjustable cursors for accurate breath data measurement. Flow/Volume loops and Volume/Pressure loops can also be displayed to enhance patient assessment.
Patient data can be trended for up to 24 hours on the LTM Graphics Monitor for extended clinical evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CareFusion Pulmonetics LTV 1200 Ventilator?

The CareFusion Pulmonetics LTV 1200 is a lightweight, portable life-support ventilator designed to provide invasive and noninvasive mechanical ventilation for infant, pediatric, and adult patients. Its compact design, integrated turbine, and multiple ventilation modes make it well suited for hospitals, emergency departments, intensive care units, patient transport, long-term care facilities, and home ventilation programs.

What type of ventilation does the LTV 1200 provide?

The LTV 1200 supports both:

• Invasive ventilation through an endotracheal tube or tracheostomy
• Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) using a mask interface

The ventilator can be used across a wide range of patient care environments requiring portable respiratory support.

What ventilation modes are available on the LTV 1200?

The LTV 1200 offers multiple ventilation modes, including:

• Assist/Control (A/C)
• Control
• SIMV
• CPAP
• Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NPPV)
• Volume Control (VC)
• Pressure Control (PC)
• Pressure Support (PS)
• Spontaneous Breathing

These modes allow clinicians to tailor ventilation for a wide variety of patient conditions.

What patient sizes can use the LTV 1200?

The LTV 1200 supports infant, pediatric, and adult patients, including patients as small as 5 kg (11 lbs). During startup, clinicians can select Infant, Pediatric, or Adult presets, allowing the ventilator to automatically configure appropriate default settings.

Does the LTV 1200 have an internal air compressor?

Yes. The LTV 1200 uses an internal turbine that generates ventilation without requiring a hospital wall air source. Supplemental oxygen may be connected when higher FiO₂ concentrations are required.

Can the LTV 1200 be used for transport?

Yes. One of the LTV 1200's greatest advantages is portability. It weighs approximately 14.5 pounds, making it ideal for intra-hospital transport, ambulance services, air medical transport, emergency response, and home care applications.

What monitoring capabilities does the LTV 1200 provide?

The ventilator continuously monitors:

• Peak Inspiratory Pressure
• Mean Airway Pressure
• PEEP
• Respiratory Rate
• Exhaled Tidal Volume
• Exhaled Minute Volume
• I:E Ratio
• Peak Flow
• Auto-PEEP
• Static Compliance
• Patient Effort

When equipped with the optional LTM Graphics Monitor, clinicians can also view pressure, flow, and volume waveforms, loops, and patient trends.

Does the LTV 1200 display waveforms?

Yes. When paired with the optional LTM Graphics Monitor, the LTV 1200 displays:

• Pressure waveforms
• Flow waveforms
• Volume waveforms
• Pressure-Volume loops
• Flow-Volume loops

Trend data can also be stored for up to 24 hours for clinical review.

Does the LTV 1200 include weaning tools?

Yes. The LTV 1200 includes a Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT) feature utilizing the Rapid Shallow Breathing Index (RSBI) to help clinicians assess readiness for ventilator weaning. The SBT settings can be customized for individual patients.

How long does the battery last?

The ventilator operates from AC power and may be equipped with the optional SprintPack Lithium-Ion battery, providing approximately 5 hours of portable operation depending on patient settings and battery condition.

What alarms are included?

The LTV 1200 includes comprehensive audible and visual alarms, including:

• High and low airway pressure
• High and low tidal volume
• High and low minute ventilation
• High and low respiratory rate
• Circuit disconnect
• Apnea
• Oxygen source alarms
• Internal battery alarms
• External power alarms
• Ventilator inoperative alarms

These alarms help clinicians respond quickly to patient or equipment issues.

What circuits are compatible with the LTV 1200?

The LTV 1200 supports multiple patient circuit configurations for invasive and noninvasive ventilation. Appropriate circuit selection depends on the prescribed therapy, patient size, and clinical application.

Can the LTV 1200 be used for home ventilation?

Yes. The LTV 1200 has been widely used in home ventilation programs because of its portability, battery operation, internal turbine, and flexible ventilation modes. It remains a popular choice for patients requiring long-term mechanical ventilation under physician supervision.
