Report Code : CVMI25071 | Published Date : July 25, 2025
Market Overview
Transportable ventilators—also known as portable or mobile ventilators—are lightweight, compact respiratory support systems used for patients needing mechanical ventilation outside traditional ICU environments. These devices are essential for emergency medical services (EMS), disaster response, intra-hospital transfers, military use, and home care. Driven by improvements in battery life, multi-mode ventilation options, and wireless connectivity, these ventilators provide continuous patient support in diverse settings.
