New Iran-Made Ventilators Capable of Working without Electricity Up to 3 Hours
“The device combines oxygen and air to the amount needed for the body and then transfers it to the patient through special tubes called the respiratory circuit,” Soheil Ma’roufkhani, a commercial member of the knowledge-based company, told ANA.
He described the unique features of the device as its usability for infants and adults, ability to transfer information to the central computer and prepare reports, leak compensation, drug nebulizer and the ability to add a capnograph which can provide the user with more extensive information about the patient's exhalation, adding, “It can also work without electricity up to three hours.”
“With the new design we had on the product, we were able to export it to Belgium, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, and Syria,” Ma’roufkhani said.
In a relevant development in April, a group of Iranian scientists from a knowledge-based firm stationed at Pardis Science and Technology Park designed and made a special non-invasive ventilator device which helps to improve lung function and oxygen supply to the body without intubation.
“The ventilator device produced in our company has been presented to the market,” said Fo’ad Faramarzi Fard, the chairman of the board of directors of the knowledge-based company.
“This respiratory assist device is a type of ventilator that facilitates the patient's breathing in a non-invasive way without any need for intubation,” he added.
Faramarzi Fard underlined that the device uses only a mask to help patients with breathing problems, adding, “The device works by using pressured oxygen and with the pressure it puts on the lungs, it keeps the patient's airways open and the lungs will discharge.”
He explained that the main use of the device is in the treatment of diseases which cause breathing disorders during sleep and other lung diseases, adding that patients can easily use it at home.
