Pneumedicare Ltd Information

Pneumedicare is a biomedical company that designs and develops novel devices for patients requiring continuous, non-invasive monitoring of the respiratory function and ventilation. Pneumedicare has developed an innovative device, the Pneumonitor TM, which quantifies and monitors the amplitude and symmetry of ventilation. This crucial information can provide the medical staff, nurses and respiratory therapists, with an appropriate picture of the adequacy and quality of ventilation, and may point to deteriorating ventilation at its earliest stages. Based on its specific arrangement of sensors on the chest and upper abdomen, the Pneumonitor TM can provide information concerning the development of asymmetric ventilation in neonates. The Pneumonitor TM is suitable for use in patients that receive ventilatory support of any kind (including high frequency ventilation), as well as for non-ventilated patients. Based on scientific work performed in the laboratory and in humans, the possible introduction of the Pneumonitor TM into the NICU's clinical activities has received enthusiastic support from opinion leaders in neonatology, pediatric, pulmonology and respiratory therapy.
