Sree Chitra ties up with Wipro-3D for AMBU ventilators

Thiruvananthapuram, Apr 1(UNI) India’s prestigious Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences and Technology (SCTIMST) on Wednesday tied up with Bengaluru-based 'Wipro 3D' for joint further development of the prototype developed by SCT followed by clinical trial and manufacture of emergency ventilator system based on Artificial Manual Breathing Unit (AMBU).
"This agreement was executed on fast track mode with the genuine intention of both parties to collaborate and offer support to the nation in the prevailing situation of COVID 19 pandemic," Sree Chitra Director Dr Asha Kishore, said.
AMBU bag or a bag-valve-mask (BVM) is a hand-held device used to provide positive pressure ventilation to a patient who is either not breathing or who is breathing inadequately, she said.
However, use of a regular AMBU needs a bystander for its operations who is highly susceptible and non-advisable to be in close contact with the COVID-19 patient.
Sree Chitra's Automated AMBU Ventilator with inputs from clinical faculty will assist the breathing of the critical patients who have no access to ICU ventilators.
