A Global Crisis

As declared by WHO, COVID19 has caused large-scale loss of life and severe human suffering

Affected Countries

COVID19 spreads across 213 countries and territories with the Americas having the greatest number of cases and death toll

Problems & Ethical Dilemmas

Around 30% of COVID19 patients require ventilatory assistance which far outnumbers medical ventilator supply

SOLVING the Global Shortage of medical equipment

SapiVents – an affordable emergency use medical ventilator

Inspired by MIT E-Vent Project

Automated resuscitator providing basic ventilator function when traditional medical ventilator is not available*
Perform basic ventilator functions
Relieve the pressure of medical ventilator supply
Free up medical ventilators for the most critical patients
Free up clinician manpower

*Short-term solution, not a direct replacement of conventional mechanical ventilator

The SapiVents remove the need for medical proning of patients, which becomes very cumbersome in an ambulance, especially on slippery and uneven roads, where the bumpy ride makes it rough for tactful calculations.
For all patients saturating lower than 95 %, the oxygenation with SapiVents is the most life saving tact.
