Implementation of low cost portable ventilator

Abstract

This paper presents the implementation and prototype of low cost, portable ventilator for patients who are in a no resource places and no primary care environment. This can be achieved by a squeezing the bag valve mask(BVM) inflating and deflating the bag with respect to the servo motor with the help of mechanism. The system contains an assist-control mode are also included in the prototype. Future versions of the device will have a pressure relief valve, PEEP capabilities, and a customizable inspiration to expiration duration ratio. The cost of this prototype is determined very much less than the mass manufacturing units of ventilators. The idea of cam based bag compression is a efficient way to achieve low cost, high efficiency in this work to aid in the crisis conditions to assist the needy people who have suffocation, and using IoT Technology , we can monitor the patient’s healthcare system through the specially made application to apply the required information about the patient’s health state, with the help of this technology, a doctor can monitor the patient’s health and giving treatments according to the information and based on the information, diagnosis will be given to the required patient.
