What is it indicated for?

The Bird Monitor Interface (BMI) is a stand-alone unit providing a means of communicating information from Bird ventilators to patient monitoring systems. Specific interfaces to the Hewlett-Packard Merlin and SpaceLabs PDMS are provided, as well as a Bird proprietary interface for use with other systems. The purpose of BMI is to deliver ventilator settings, monitored values, alarm information and waveform data to the patient monitoring system.

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