The Dräger Fabius Tiro is a compact, full-featured anesthesia workstation designed to deliver high-quality ventilation performance in limited spaces. Engineered for both flexibility and precision, the Fabius Tiro integrates Dräger’s advanced E-Vent piston ventilator, providing ICU-level performance without drive gas. This electronically controlled, electrically driven ventilator supports a wide range of ventilation modes to meet patient needs across different acuity levels—from routine cases to critical procedures. Ideal for operating rooms, induction areas, and procedure suites, the Tiro’s modular configuration and compact footprint allow maximum utility in confined areas without compromising functionality. The workstation includes a high-contrast display, intelligent safety features, and fresh gas decoupling for accurate low-flow anesthesia delivery. The COSY compact breathing system ensures precision ventilation with integrated PEEP and pressure limitation controls, and it’s fully compatible with Dräger’s CLIC absorbers. Designed for mobility and ease of use, the Tiro features a maneuverable cart, central braking system, and standardized Dräger user interface—ensuring consistent operation and minimal training time for clinicians.
