Inspirar Health Tech (or Projeto Inspirar) is a lung ventilator manufacturing company, founded in Brazil in 2020.[1] Inspirar Health Tech operates as a subsidiary of TACOM company.[2]
History[edit]
The company was created regarding the need to contribute and to minimize the expected collapse of the health system generated by the lack of respirators during the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil.[3] Through the effort of a large team of Hardware and Software engineers and the support of several companies, entities and volunteers, the project was developed in a period considered to be very short.
Projeto Inspirar — one of the most efficient manufacturers of medical equipment.[4] With headquarters in Minas Gerais (Brazil), Projeto Inspirar operates in India, Peru, South Africa.
“Projeto Inspirar” is 1,600 equipment units produced and donated,[5] hundreds of equipped hospitals, and thousands of lives saved.
Product[edit]
The VI-C19 — a lung ventilator developed in a record time of 45 days for use in field hospitals or standard hospital settings.[6]
The VI-C19 ventilator has three operation modes: PCV (Pressure Controlled Ventilation), VCV (Volume Controlled Ventilation) and PSV (Pressure Support Ventilation). It enables ventilators to work with low-pressure air, and an exclusive vacuum exhaust system isolates the ambient air from the patient's exhaled air (via the USEAR unit), thereby reducing the risk of contaminating other patients and healthcare professionals.
The VI-C19 ventilator can also work with a hospital's existing high-pressure air networks, facilitating its implementation in locations where these networks are already installed.
It has three levels of control and monitoring;
- individual control of the ventilator in the bed where it was installed for patient on-site monitoring.
- Assembled by the customer, the Control and Monitoring Center (CMC) is an infrastructure that allows remote monitoring of all equipment through 55-inch monitors and displays clinical alarms and alerts for each VI-C19 ventilator in operation. This infrastructure allows healthcare professionals to centrally monitor parameters of the various ventilators in operation, providing faster and more effective patient care.
- The Technology Control Center (TCC) is a centralised infrastructure that allows the monitoring of ventilators used throughout several different units. Each VI-C19 ventilator is supplied with a mobile data communication chip, allowing Inspirar Monitoring Center to monitor performances of all field equipment.
