COVIDIEN Puritan Bennett 560 Ventilator Analysis Report

Device Identification

The device in the examined images is a portable mechanical ventilator unit used for medical purposes, providing respiratory support to patients in both home care and clinical settings. The device has a compact structure, is portable, and features a digital screen interface.

Brand and Model

Upon detailed examination of the images, brand and model information is clearly legible on the device’s front panel and screen. The device’s brand has been identified as COVIDIEN, and its model as Puritan Bennett 560 Ventilator. The phrase “PURITAN BENNETT™ 560” is also clearly visible on the device’s startup screen.

General Condition and Usage Information

The general condition of the device appears to be very good and clean. However, the most striking and important detail regarding the product’s condition is the usage hours displayed in the screen menu. According to the data on the information screen in image 2:

• Machine Operating Hours: 00456 hours
• Patient Usage Hours: 00000 hours 10 minutes

A total machine operating time of 456 hours can be classified as “very lightly used” or even “almost new” for this type of medical device. For devices that typically operate for thousands of hours, 456 hours indicates that a significant portion of the device’s electronic and mechanical life has not yet been consumed. Even if the device is second-hand, it is in excellent condition.

Physical Condition and Deformation Analysis

The physical condition of the device has been analyzed from the image as follows:

• Casing: The outer plastic casing is generally clean, retains its white/grey color, and no significant yellowing or discoloration is observed. No deep scratches, breaks, or cracks were noted on the casing.
• Cosmetic Flaw (Tape Mark): In the blue carrying handle area on the upper part of the device, there is a residue resembling tape or an adhesive label, and a slight deformation associated with it. While this does not pose a functional problem, it may require cosmetic cleaning.
• Keypad: The membrane buttons on the front panel appear robust, and the symbols on them (Power, Menu, Up/Down arrows, Confirm) are clearly legible. There is no fading or tearing.

Electronic Components and Screen Analysis

The electronic functions and screen status of the device are active. The device is shown in working condition in the images:

• Screen Brightness: The LCD screen’s backlight is vibrant, and no dead pixels or stains are visible. The text is clearly legible.
• Menu Language: The device’s interface language is set to Turkish (understood from the phrases “MERHABA”, “Makine”, “Hasta”).
• LED Indicators: The mains power (plugged in) and battery status indicator LEDs on the left side of the front panel are lit green. The blue LED on the Power (on/off) button is active.
• Software Version: In the second image, the software information “Software Versiyonu: LX010107 / AL020002” is legible on the screen.

Operating Parameters

In the first image, the device is shown set in “P SIMV” mode. The technical settings displayed on the screen are as follows:

• Pi: 20 mbar
• P Support: 20 mbar
• EPAP: 5 mbar
• Frequency: 14 bpm
• Insp Time: 1.4s
• Trigger I: 2

On the right side of the screen, the warning “PRESS TO START VENTILATION” is displayed, indicating that the device is in ‘Standby’ mode and awaiting confirmation to begin ventilating the patient.

Originality and Date Information

The product is a 100% original COVIDIEN product, as evidenced by its logos (Covidien), interface design, labeling, and casing structure. The phrase “Copyright 2020 COVIDIEN” is located at the bottom of the screen. Additionally, the date information on the screen is “15 OC 2026” (January 15, 2026) and the time is “17:49:11”. This indicates that the device’s date/time battery is active and the system maintains the current time.

Accessories and Battery Status

Quantity Information: The images show 1 main unit.

Battery: Since the battery icon LED light on the device’s left panel is green, it is understood that an internal battery is present and its charge status is good or it is charging. However, the battery’s charge retention capacity cannot be tested from the images.

Missing Items: Only the main device is visible in the images. The patient circuit (tubing), mask, bacterial filter, carrying bag, or the complete power cable (only the path of the cable to the device is estimated, but the adapter etc. is not visible) are not present in the images. A compatible patient circuit (tubing set) is required for the device to be used.

Potential Failure Risk

Based on the images, no breakage, crack, or “Error/Failure” message (red alarm LEDs are not lit) that would impede use can be detected on the device. On the contrary, the device shows no error codes on its self-test startup screen and proceeds to standby mode. The device’s low operating hours (456 hours) indicate a very low risk of mechanical wear. The tape mark on the upper part is merely cosmetic and not an element that would harm the device. The overall condition is reassuring.
