These steps will help you repair a Breas PV501 ventilator, a device used at home or in a hospital to assist patients who have difficulty breathing or are intubated for surgery. This guide can also be used for the PV501-2 model, which differs from the PV501 model only by an increase of 10 mbar.

== Background ==

[link|https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health-topics/ventilatorventilator-support|Ventilators] are vital pieces of equipment typically seen in hospitals, especially in the intensive care unit. They are used when a patient cannot breathe or is being intubated for surgery. These machines pump air, typically with extra oxygen, into the lungs. There has been a huge demand for ventilators in recent years, specifically for long-term ventilators in the home environment. Fixing a previously broken Breas PV501—[link|https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK143277/|a type of ventilator]—can positively impact the healthcare world in times of need. Ventilators save lives, and we can save more of them if we learn to repair ventilators instead of discarding them.

This information is useful to medical personnel, biomedical technicians, and anyone who owns a Breas PV501 ventilator. [link|https://www.breas.com/about-breas/breas-30-years/|Breas] is a worldwide medical device company that is known for improving air ventilation, sleep, and airway complications in patients for over 30 years. This particular model, the PV501 differs from its successor, the PV501-2. The difference between the two is minimal: The PV501-2 delivers a maximum patient pressure of 60 mbar (compared to the PV501’s 50 mbar).

== Identification ==

To verify whether or not the device you need to fix is the Breas PV501 ventilator, look for these identification markers. The device is gray in color and weighs about 21.6 pounds. On the front, “BREAS PV501” is clearly displayed in a large, red font. Other ventilators or [link|https://breas.us/products/|Breas equipment] may look similar to the PV501. Verify the PV501 model number on the front of the device before you proceed.
