One COPD
Transforming COPD care through integration
Lack of integration makes today’s COPD management unsustainable
Fragmented care teams and care settings
As costs increase and interventions remain reactionary, breaking this cycle grows further out of reach.
One COPD: Philips’ commitment to integrated disease management
Creating seamless, patient-centric care throughout the care continuum
Comprehensive system of:
Commited to reshaping care delivery:
Closing the gaps in care
We’re bringing unprecedented focus to continuity of care and readmission avoidance. This starts with closing gaps and enabling better data sharing and stakeholder communication across settings.
Patient care solutions for every disease severity
- Respiratory drug delivery
-
Airway clearance
Featured solution: Threshold PEP (positive expiratory pressure) Used for airway clearance, bronchial hygiene, or as an alternative to chest physical therapy. The resistive load creates positive pressure during exhalation that helps open the airways and allows mucus to be expelled.
Respiratory muscle trainer
Featured solution: Threshold IMT (inspiratory muscle trainer) Provides consistent and specific pressure for inspiratory muscle strength and endurance training, regardless of how quickly or slowly patients breathe. This exercises respiratory muscles and improves breathing.
Nebulizers and compressors
Featured solution: InnoSpire Go A portable mesh nebulizer that delivers treatments in just 4 minutes*, utilizing clinically proven, vibrating mesh technology—to give patients more time for what matters most. It’s designed for ease of use, is lightweight and can be used by both children and adults with or without a facemask.
Spacers and holding chambers
Featured solution: OptiChamber Diamond This valved holding chamber is extraordinarily small and convenient. Its intuitive design enhances medication delivery for most patients, at home or in the hospital.
- Oxygen
-
Featured solution: SimplyGo Mini
The smallest and lightest portable oxygen concentrator Philips Respironics has ever developed. Its impact-resistant design and extended battery life give patients the confidence to do what they want, when they want. Count on it day and night.*
*When used in accordance with all instructions and conditions outlined in the SimplyGo Mini user manual
Featured solution: SimplyGo
It’s time for an oxygen concentrator to meet the needs of your patients, whether they’re at home or on the go. With the ability to offer continuous flow and pulse-dose delivery in a single device, you can now manage the therapy and lifestyle needs of nearly all of your patients. It’s compact for easy storage and travel, and is compatible with CPAP and BiPAP (bilevel positive airway pressure) machines for nighttime oxygen delivery.

- Ventilation
-
Featured solution: V60/V30/Trilogy
This trio of ventilators enables consistent, reliable care across settings: from managing acute respiratory failure in the ED and ICU, to post-acute care in the general ward, to acute respiratory failure management post-discharge.
Featured solution: Trilogy with AVAPS-AE (average volume assured pressure support-auto EPAP)
Provides consistent and tailored ventilation across settings. 80% of surveyed Healthcare organizations reported Trilogy with AVAPS-AE improved quality of life for patients.* AVAPS-AE automatically and independently adjusts pressure support, expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP), and backup rate. AVAPS is designed to automatically adjust and provide the lowest possible pressures to manage your ventilation needs.

Featured solution: Philips Respironics AF541
This comfortable noninvasive ventilation (NIV) mask features interchangeable under-the-nose and over-the-nose cushions, allowing patients to achieve the benefits of NIV mask rotation with one convenient mask. After a hospital stay, the mask can easily transition home with patients to be used with their home care device.
Featured solution: Discharge kit
To help patients maintain effective therapy as they transition out of the hospital, discharge kits include entrainment elbows, headgear, and a swivel adapter – everything needed to use the mask at home or in a lower acuity setting.
Featured solution: DreamWear System of Masks
Our portfolio of under-the-nose, gel pillow and full-face masks features a minimal design for maximum comfort. DreamWear masks connect to a patient’s ventilator and help deliver effective therapy with over-the-head tubing and modular inserts. By providing freedom of movement, they’re the closest thing to wearing nothing at all.

Featured solution: Care management
Building from our multi-acuity management platform, this program helps you support advanced-stage, co-morbid COPD patients in the home setting. It focuses on patient needs as they transition between settings, to help you provide targeted care with fewer resources.
Featured solution: Connected devices
These enable your entire care team to access patient data and treatment information, so you can optimize care plans and support comprehensive management. And connecting to Care Orchestrator puts more power at your fingertips to proactively intervene.
Featured solution: Respiratory support services
These enable you to improve the quality and efficiency of care delivery by providing access to respiratory therapists and health coaches, behavioral and motivational therapies, and telehealth services.
Integration case: Seamless transitions
Ventilators that span care environments
V60 Treating exacerbations in the ED and ICU
V30 Step-down patient care in the general ward
Trilogy Homecare maintenance
Advanced modes that span settings
BiPAP AVAPS Provides consistent ventilation or dynamic patients in the ED and ICU
AVAPS-AE Eases the transition from acute to chronic care
BiPAP = Bilevel positive airway pressure AVAPS = Average volume assured pressure support AVAPS-AE = Average volume assured pressure support – auto EPAP
Unify data access and management with Care Orchestrator
Enables bi-directional data-sharing from hospital to home, to integrate teams and harmonize care
Communicates with patients’ homecare platforms
Uploads home care data to EMR for universal access (compatiblewith all EMRs)
Enables home care teams to update care plan based on in patient records
Reports back to inpatient team on out patient programs / updates
Facilitates seamless care and accelerates discharge home
Upon readmission, enables inpatient team to immediately ID patients and diagnose cause of readmission
Finally, you and your patients can transform health, together.
Pioneering the proof in readmission avoidance
Our vision is built upon volumes of industry-leading research on evidence-based care. Philips continues to sponsor studies to identify forward-thinking strategies for integrating care and supporting better outcomes.

How staffing an RT in the ED transformed outcomes
We saved over $700,000 the first year, which gave us some equity to operate on. It helps paint the true picture of what’s going on if you do have an ED therapist.”
Jennifer Anderson, MBA, RRT, AE-C
Director Respiratory Care and Pulmonary Function Labs AU Medical Center
General ward
How staffing an RT in the ED transformed outcomes
We met. We brainstormed. We prototyped. We reframed what we did. We tried to fail quickly and succeed boldly. After doing that, we came up with a new model that was truly patient-centered.”
Clinical Associate Professor of Medicine
University of Pittsburgh
Discharge
Optimal discharge planning leads to a reduction in COPD readmissions
The first step to a truly effective discharge plan is to shift our thinking. Discharge is not an isolated event, but part of the entire continuum of care for the patient.”

How to inspire patients to come forward in discussing COPD
Many patients are not diagnosed until late stages of COPD because they were ashamed to talk to their doctors about symptoms that they brought upon themselves.”
