Need

Respiratory support has a critical role to play in the treatment of Covid-19 patients. Unfortunately, a chronic shortage of ventilators is being experienced across the world. While manufacturers are stepping up to meet the growing demand, there is still a huge mismatch between ventilator production and ventilator demand. Countries and heath organizations around the world are trying to find alternative solutions to manage this challenge. USFDA has recently published its mitigation strategy to address this problem and has touted breathing support systems such as CPAPs as an alternate depending on the patient condition. However, most alternative breathing support equipment use patient interfaces that aerosolize infected secretions.
