Intelligent transport ventilation for
neonates
Hamilton Medical now offers a high-end ventilation solution for your
most fragile patients with the new neonatal option* for the HAMILTONT1
transport ventilator
The HAMILTON-T1 with neonatal option is a high-end transport ventilator that provides the best
possible ventilation therapy for your smallest and most vulnerable patients. During transport, the
HAMILTON-T1 delivers the same performance as a fully featured NICU ventilator at the bedside.
Its unique features make it one of the best transport ventilators for neonates.
Optimized performance for neonates
Hamilton Medical has specially adapted the HAMILTON-T1 hardware and software to optimally
meet the needs of ventilated neonates. Supporting tidal volumes of just 2 ml, the HAMILTON-T1
allows for effective, safe, and lung- protective ventilation for even the smallest preemies. The
reliable and robust neonatal flow sensor accurately measures pressure, volume, and flow proximal
to the patient. This guarantees the required sensitivity and response time, and prevents dead
space ventilation. Therefore, the patient is better synchronized and the work of breathing (WOB)
is reduced. The new neonatal expiratory valve can balance even the smallest differences in
pressure and offers the neonate the possibility to breathe spontaneously in each phase of a
controlled breathing cycle.
nCPAP with demand flow technology
In addition to all modern neonatal ventilation modes, the HAMILTON-T1 offers a new generation
of nCPAP. In the new nCPAP-PC (pressure control) mode, you only define the desired CPAP target
value for your patient and the ventilator automatically and continuously adapts the required flow
to the patient's condition and possible leaks. Thanks to the demand flow technology, your patient
will receive only as much flow as is necessary to obtain the set CPAP target. This reduces WOB,
reduces the need for user interventions and ensures optimal leak compensation. You will also
require less oxygen for transport and noise caused by the ventilator decreases distinctively.
Unlimited mobility
With approvals and certificates for most types of transport and situations the HAMILTON-T1 is an
ideal escort for your tiniest patients, reliable everywhere, both inside and outside the hospital, in

the air as well as on the ground. The built-in high-performance turbine makes it completely
independent of compressed air, gas cylinders or compressors. This saves weight and space and
even noninvasively ventilated neonates can be transported over long distances. The combination
of a built-in and an optional hot-swappable battery provides a battery operation of more than 9
hours. This can be extended indefinitely with additional hot-swappable batteries.
