Secure by design

Astral’s sophisticated technologies and advanced alarms simplify life for caregivers and patients. Systems have been thoughtfully designed so, whatever setup is chosen, users can feel confident, comfortable and protected.

A disconnection alarm can be titrated to a wide range of setups. Even small changes, like disconnection of a small diameter tracheotomy tube, will trigger the alarm. And for confident adjustment, the Learn Circuit automatically measures the circuit resistance and compliance of the breathing circuit components, then adapts and compensates accordingly.

Versatile, practical, liveable

Astral delivers a full suite of therapy modes in a broad range of scenarios. It can be used during the day and at night, for tracheotomised patients or non-invasively ventilated patients with a mask or mouthpiece. This versatility enables you to cater for a wide variety of patients, from adults to children weighing as little as 5kg.

Astral makes it easy to manage complexity. There’s no need to change the circuit when you switch from a mask to a mouthpiece. You can choose from a range of trigger options to match your patient’s inspiratory effort. It’s easy to flex between different circuit configurations and settings and to keep track of them, with four fully configurable programmes and the option to name them.
