Vayu bCPAP System One Pager

The Vayu bCPAP system is a groundbreaking, low-cost treatment for respiratory distress in newborns and infants that does not require electricity or compressed air, making it highly accessible. It has been authorized for emergency use by the US FDA and approved by regulatory bodies in several countries, having treated over 5,000 patients across more than 20 countries. Supported by major organizations like the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the system enhances the quality of care by effectively pressurizing, humidifying, and enriching breathing gases with oxygen.

5 million children die annually before their fifth birthday from preventable illnesses. Respiratory distress is a leading cause.

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is an effective treatment, but previous CPAP systems were expensive and required
continuous electricity, compressed medical air and intensive biomedical engineering support.

The Vayu bCPAP system is the first high quality newborn and infant bCPAP system that does
not require electricity or compressed air

Accessibility matters. The Vayu bCPAP system...


• Does not require electricity or compressed air (only pressurized oxygen)
• Is simple to use and easy to maintain
• Costs a fraction of the price of previous CPAP systems

Quality of care matters. The Vayu bCPAP system...


• Pressurizes, humidifies, filters and enriches breathing gases with oxygen
• Has an evidence based circuit for low imposed work of breathing

• Is authorized for Emergency Use by the US FDA and approved by


Kenya’s PPB, Brazil’s ANVISA, and Tanzania’s TMDA

Development of the Vayu bCPAP System has


been supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation, the National Institutes of
Health and UNITAID (a global initiative
hosted by WHO). It has been deployed
in over 20 countries (including
Philippines, Kenya, Belgium and US)
and treated over 5000 patients.

“The Vayu CPAP is brilliant and a


winner. It truly is ingenious”
-Professor Jeffrey Perlman, Director of
Neonatology, Cornell Medical Center, USA

Why doesn’t Vayu bCPAP need electricity?


“Our mortality rate significantly
The innovative, patented blender in Vayu bCPAP uses a dropped since we started using the
jet of oxygen to pull in ambient air, providing safe, Vayu bCPAP in our institution”
adjustable concentrations of oxygen for patients –Dr. Daisy Garcia, Chief of Neonatology,
without the need for electric pumps Ilocos Regional Medical Center, Philippines
