Cough Simulation: Revolutionizing Infection Control in the ICU

Innovent Medical Solutions' breakthrough technology for non-invasive airway clearance promises to revolutionize secretion management in critical care ventilated patients. Our patented combination of a suction unit and a disposable valve simulates a natural cough in ventilated patients in order to clear their secretions non-invasively. This technique, known as mechanical inexsufflation, is more effective than the current gold standard: invasive catheter suction.

As compared to catheter suction, Innovent's system is completely non-traumatic, does not introduce infection into the airways, can clear areas of the lung inaccessible to catheters, and may enable patients to avoid endotracheal intubation completely.
