FAQ's
1. How portable is a ventilator?
Ans: Portable ventilators have internal batteries, which means you can unplug and receive the same breathing support while moving around your home, going out, or traveling. Ventilators come with travel bags that can hook onto the back of your wheelchair. Ventilators weigh anywhere from seven to 18 pounds.
Battery life for ventilators ranges from 6 to 8 hours, depending on which device you have. If you need more time, you can purchase additional batteries for backup. You can also connect your ventilator into the battery of your wheelchair or use an adapter to plug it into a cigarette lighter.
2. When Should I Get a ventilator?
Ans: Because most people with ALS first experience breathing difficulties when lying down, it is common to rent a bilevel machine before getting a portable ventilator. But once you also need breathing support during the day, your neurologist will prescribe a portable ventilator.
Your ALS Clinic team or neurologist will monitor your breathing every visit and let you know when you qualify for a portable ventilator.
3. What is the difference between a portable ventilator and ICU ventilator?
Ans: An ICU Ventilator is a complex device used for various requirements by the respiratory therapist and doctors in the ICU. Portable ventilators are mostly similar to ICU Ventilators used in home or transport areas, but it has to be given on a trial period before moving the patient as it generally requires some control and settings from the doctors.
4. How long does a portable ventilator last?
Ans: Typically portable ventilators last around 12-14 hours varying with manufacturers specifications.
