Due to a shortage of ventilators, patient caretakers and doctors use bag valve mask devices to manually ventilate patients for prolonged periods leading to mortality and morbidity. To fulfil the requirement of ventilators, many start-ups and innovators are coming up with solutions. Ventilator manufacturers are racing to boost production of the medical ventilators required to save the lives of many critically ill coronavirus patients, but they will not be able to ramp up production quickly enough to meet the demands of the exponentially growing cases of COVID-19. Draegerwerk AG, Medtronic PLC, Getinge AB, Philips NV and Hamilton Medical among the biggest suppliers of medical ventilators and related respiratory equipment, are working day and night to meet increased global demand. For instance: Hamilton Medical, which typically produces about 15,000 of the devices a year, has ramped up production about 40% amid COVID-19 outbreak.
