As COVID-19 cases continue to rise, hospitals are worried about shortages of personal protective equipment and Breathing resporators that help seriously ill patients breathe. The huge shortage of ventilators in Europe and the US is not news. Obviously, countries represented by the United States and the United Kingdom missed the early golden period of non-invasive ventilator reserve due to their inactive countermeasures policies, resulting in the timely treatment of countless mild and severe patients.

As a result, demand for non-invasive ventilators has multiplied in the UK and THE US, in addition to countries with limited medical resources such as Italy and Spain. China was the obvious first country to ask for help.

Why is a ventilator so important for COVID-19 patients?

The World Health Organization has also made it clear that the most severe cases can cause breathing difficulties. This is because novel Coronavirus targets the lungs, causing secretions in the lungs that block the alveoli and trachea, making breathing difficult, lowering blood oxygen levels and increasing carbon dioxide levels in the body, which can lead to failure of other organs and even death.

The principle of breathing resporator on COVID-19 patients

Ventilation can change a person’s normal physiological breathing, increase pulmonary ventilation, improve respiratory function, reduce respiratory work consumption, save cardiac reserve capacity, thus allowing time for other treatments. Obviously, non-invasive mechanical ventilation systems and invasive mechanical ventilation systems are the main means of maintaining breathing for patients with dyspnea in this outbreak.

Invasive ventilators are generally used in severe cases. Between 30% and 89% of COVID-19 patients admitted to intensive care units require invasive mechanical ventilation. Doctors first insert a tube into the patient’s windpipe from the nose or mouth, which is then connected to hospital Ventilator equipment to assist or control ventilation. Doctors raced against time to save critically ill patients by intubating them with oxygen. The fastest doctors can intubate patients in 15-20 seconds.

However, intubation must be anesthetized. With severe pneumonia, every second counts. Not only do doctors have to perform intubations under extreme stress, but they also risk infection when in close contact with patients.

Non-invasive mechanical ventilation is generally used in patients with mild symptoms, but in practice, many moderate-to-severe patients also use non-invasive ventilators: breathing support via a mask, nose mask or helmet, without intubation. The procedure is more convenient and reduces the doctor’s risk of infection.

The AV3010 ventilator is extremely powerful, ensuring a more comprehensive understanding of the patient’s condition. At the same time, according to the changes of patients’ conditions, a more suitable plan can be developed for patients’ conditions. In addition, the device uses pneumatic and electrical control methods, allowing it to have a variety of ventilation modes, which to some extent reduces the workload of medical staff.

One of the most worrying aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic is the massive shortage of Breathing Resporators. Mechanical ventilators, which are in short supply around the world, support severely ill COVID-19 patients by helping them breathe and using pumps and breathing tubes to support weakened lung function, greatly increasing countries’ ability to treat critically ill patients.
