== Background and Identification ==

Forrest Morton Bird influenced modern mechanical ventilation by developing the Bird Mark series of ventilators. His knowledge in both aeronautical and fluid dynamics studies led him to help develop masks and a suit to help pilots in WW2. He ended up suffering from ocular hemorrhages due to a failure during a test on one of the suits which led him to go into the medical field, where he designed his first ventilator in 1947, the ''Bird Mark'', and later one of his most famous, the ''Babybird''. This was a pediatric ventilator that was credited for saving several lives and reducing the mortality rate of infants. His research in this field allowed him to develop a technique for the best possible frequency for ventilation which led to his success.

The ''Bird Partner and Partner IIi'' are also known as the ''VIP BIRD 15285'' ventilator. This unit  combines both microprocessor-based technology and a pneumatic system to allow it to be self-sufficient. This ventilator can provide outstanding patient monitoring. In addition, it comes with several functions with variable adjusting modes. The ''Bird Partner and Partner IIi'' ventilator’s purpose is to treat respiratory failure or any respiratory issues in infant and pediatric patients.
