Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science 43rd Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society (EMBC), Mexico, 2021 MIT's Emergency-Vent Project was launched in March 2020 to develop safe guidance and a reference design for a bridge ventilator that could be rapidly produced in a distributed manner worldwide. The system uses a novel servo-based robotic gripper to automate the squeezing of a manual resuscitator bag evenly from both sides to provide ventilation according to clinically specified parameters. In just one month, the team designed and built prototype ventilators, tested them in a series of porcine trials, and collaborated with industry partners to enable mass production. We released the design, including mechanical drawings, design spreadsheets, circuit diagrams, and control code into an open source format and assisted production efforts worldwide.Clinical relevance- This work demonstrated the viability of automating the compression of a manual resuscitator bag, with pressure feedback, to provide bridge ventilation support. 2024-05-15T20:33:39Z 2024-05-15T20:33:39Z 2021-11-01 2024-05-15T20:27:54Z Article http://purl.org/eprint/type/ConferencePaper https://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/154981 T.
