Pneumedicare Ltd. develops a novel device for continuous monitoring of lung ventilation in mechanically ventilated patients. The device warns on changes in lung ventilation or air distribution in the lungs in earlier stages, before the development of life threatening deteriorations due to decrease in blood oxygenation. It characterizes the nature and the location of the problem. The monitoring is based on quantification of the lung ventilation dynamics by unique mechanical sensors attached to the chest at different sites. The device facilitates monitoring the ventilated patients, allows earlier treatment before the development of irreversible damages and thus improves the safety of mechanical ventilation.
