Posted on 03 Feb 2005
Two new critical-care products integrate a nebulizer system that offers clinicians ways to enhance the care of patients with respiratory problems.

The Aptaer Heliox delivery system provides a noninvasive way to manage patients with severely compromised airways. Both products are from GE Healthcare (London, UK). Mechanical breathing support and aerosolized medications are two of the most common therapies administered to patients with respiratory problems.

Both products incorporate a version of Aeroneb Pro, developed by Aerogen, Inc. (Mountain View, CA, USA). Aerogen is supplying a customized version to GE for this purpose under an agreement between the two companies. The Aeroneb Pro utilizes Aerogen's OnQ aerosol generators and is designed specifically to improve the efficiency of aerosolized drug therapy to mechanically ventilated patients.

"The introduction of these two products containing Aerogen's technology helps us fulfill our commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions to enhance patient care,” said Paul Baumgart, General Manager, GE Healthcare Respiratory Group.
