The Refurbished CareFusion AVEA Ventilator is an advanced critical-care mechanical ventilator designed to provide continuous invasive and non-invasive respiratory support for neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients.
The AVEA platform combines broad patient-range ventilation with advanced respiratory monitoring, specialized gas-delivery technologies, and transport capability. With tidal-volume support from 2.0 mL to 2.5 L, it is designed to accommodate patients ranging from very small newborns to adults.
Product Description
The CareFusion AVEA Ventilator is a comprehensive critical-care ventilation system intended for use across neonatal, pediatric, and adult patient populations.
Its capabilities include volume-control, pressure-control, CPAP/PSV, PRVC, and APRV ventilation modes. Advanced monitoring features include BiCore pulmonary monitoring, transpulmonary pressure calculations using esophageal balloons, and volumetric capnography.
The system also incorporates an electronic servo-controlled active exhalation valve, Heliox delivery capability, an internal compressor, and a backup battery for intra-hospital transport.

Patient Range & Tidal Volume
The AVEA is designed to support a broad range of patients, from tiny newborns through adults.
The specified tidal-volume range is:
2.0 mL to 2.5 L
This wide operating range makes the platform suitable for ventilation across neonatal, pediatric, and adult critical-care applications.
Advanced Respiratory Monitoring
BiCore Pulmonary Monitoring
The AVEA includes integrated BiCore pulmonary monitoring, providing advanced respiratory monitoring capabilities.
Transpulmonary Pressure
The system supports transpulmonary pressure calculations using esophageal balloons, allowing clinicians to obtain additional information about respiratory mechanics when the appropriate monitoring setup is used.
Volumetric Capnography
Volumetric capnography is another integrated monitoring capability of the AVEA platform, providing respiratory gas-exchange information through measurement of carbon dioxide in relation to exhaled volume.
Ventilation Modes
Volume Control
The AVEA supports volume-controlled ventilation in:
- A/C – Assist/Control
- SIMV – Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation
Volume control provides volume-targeted mandatory ventilation according to configured parameters.
Pressure Control
Pressure-controlled ventilation is available in:
These modes provide pressure-targeted mechanical ventilation according to the selected clinical settings.
CPAP / Pressure Support Ventilation
The system supports:
- CPAP – Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
- PSV – Pressure Support Ventilation
These modes can support spontaneous breathing according to the clinical requirements and configuration.
PRVC
PRVC (Pressure Regulated Volume Control) combines volume-targeted ventilation with pressure regulation to achieve the selected ventilation target.
APRV
APRV (Airway Pressure Release Ventilation) provides an alternative pressure-based ventilation strategy for appropriate critical-care applications.
Mobility & Transport
The CareFusion AVEA incorporates a lightweight internal compressor, supporting its operation as a self-contained critical-care ventilator.
A standard backup battery provides up to 2 hours of power during intra-hospital transport, according to the supplied specifications.
This can support patient movement between areas of a healthcare facility where continuous ventilatory support is required.
Actual battery duration can vary with operating conditions and battery condition. For refurbished equipment, battery performance should be verified before clinical use.
