LunGuard · raw details

LunGuard is developing a proprietary physiological integrated patient interface system for ICU ventilated and fed patients. Its technology pipeline is built around the Reflux Prevention System (RPS technology). The system incorporates six active safety and efficient features: an intelligent reflux prevention system to safely reduce VAP; it enables more aggressive ventilation and nutrition therapy; a smart system for ETT cuff sealing monitoring and control to reduce aspiration; it enhances patient safety by the integrated pulmonary pressure detector and enables more effective ventilation of obese and asthma patients; the Smart Tube which incorporates PH sensors that serve as a reflux episode indicator; and a Vomiting indicator based on pressure technique. The system can be used with any ventilator or feeding system and replaces the NG tube with its own proprietary smart sensor. The Reflux Prevention feature is capable of managing reflux, reducing pulmonary aspiration and significantly lowering the occurrence of Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP) in ventilated patients.
