Abstract

The mission of the MassVentil project team is developing of a working prototype for a modular mass ventilator system, which, under critical circumstances, can be used to simultaneously ventilate a large number of coronavirus patients in critical condition. Plans and results are available for free for those who wish to use it during the COVID-19 outbreak. In short: they are designing a mass ventilator system, that can ventilate up to 5-10-50 or even more people at once, protect healthcare workers, and can be operated outside of hospitals, in temporary emergency camps.
