What is it indicated for?

The AVEA is intended to provide continuous respiratory support in an institutional health care environment (e.g. hospitals). It may be used on adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients. It should only be operated by properly trained clinical personnel, under the direction of a physician. The AVEA is indicated for the delivery of air, oxygen or a helium-oxygen combination (Heliox).

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
