The Nihon Kohden NKV-550 Series is a ventilator family with a graphical control interface and a breath-delivery unit. The interface displays monitored values and waveforms, while the delivery unit controls the pneumatic system that supplies breaths.

A microprocessor links the electronic controls to breath delivery. Clinicians set ventilation parameters and alarm limits at the interface, with the system supporting mandatory and spontaneous modes for invasive or noninvasive respiratory support.
