ER24 on Friday received a new, high-tech ventilator that can be used to treat both adults and children, the emergency services provider said.
"ER24's chief medical officer, Dr Robyn Holgate, took delivery of the first upgraded Hamilton T-1 ventilator on Friday afternoon at ER24s head office in Paulshof, [Johannesburg]," ER24 said in a statement.
The device is used to help patients breathe.
"The Hamilton T-1 is designed to ventilate any patient from [newborn] to adult at any place around the world.
"It is the ideal choice for air ambulance teams as it can ventilate all patients, can run from any power source, is independent from compressed gas, and is approved for the flight environment."
