We describe a minimum, rapidly scalable ventilator designed for COVID-19 patients with
ARDS. Our design philosophy is not only to try to address potential ventilator shortages, but …

For the past 50 years, positive pressure ventilation has been a cornerstone of treatment for
respiratory failure. Consensus surrounding the epidemiology of respiratory failure has …

The COVID‐19 pandemic has produced critical shortages of ventilators worldwide. There is
an unmet need for rapidly deployable, emergency‐use ventilators with sufficient functionality …

There has existed a severe ventilator deficit in much of the world for many years, due in part
to the high cost and complexity of traditional ICU ventilators. This was highlighted and …

Objectives: The ongoing severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 or coronavirus
disease 2019 pandemic has demonstrated the potential need for a low-cost, rapidly …

The COVID-19 pandemic is overwhelming healthcare systems worldwide. A significant
portion of COVID-19 patients develop pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome …

We present a low-cost clinically viable ventilator design, AmbuBox, using a controllable
pneumatic enclosure and standard manual resuscitators that are readily available …

The COVID-19 pandemic situation has called for an urgent need for the development of low
cost respiratory ventilators across the globe. Such ventilators must include functionalities to …

Respiratory failure complicates most critically ill patients with COVID-19 and is characterized
by heterogeneous pulmonary parenchymal involvement, profound hypoxemia and …

Background The manufacturing of any standard mechanical ventilator cannot rapidly be
upscaled to several thousand units per week, largely due to supply chain limitations. The …
