Emergency

Throughout the world, as millions of people go about their lives, emergency incidences requiring immediate ventilation may occur at any given time.

From schools to shopping centers, gyms to swimming pools, to hotels and restaurants and on the road. Until now, it has not been possible to have non-medical personnel treat people who requiring immediate life saving ventilation at the scene of an emergency.

Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation (BCV) with the Hayek MRTX ventilator, delivers a comprehensive and effective solution to this problem by providing complete ventilation non-invasively, available to be applied immediately by non-medical personnel at the scene.

The Hayek MRTX uses a method known as Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation or BCV to provide complete, yet non-invasive ventilation for patients. This method of ventilation can be applied very easily and in a short learning time. Making it ideal for medical or non-medical personnel providing treatment at the scene. The short time required to apply BCV is crucial in emergency situations and can be the difference between life and death.

BCV actively controls both the inspiratory and expiratory phases of the respiratory cycle. Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation works physiologically by creating negative chamber pressure on the entire chest area. BCV causes the lungs to expand and for inhalation to occur. Using positive pressure in the cuirass, it then creates an expiratory, exhalation.

The patented technology used in the Hayek MRTX greatly increases minute ventilation and enables effective ventilation in both normal and injured lungs.

EMT's and Paramedics

EMTs and Paramedics can easily use the Hayek MRTX on the scene of an emergency, in an ambulance or emergency response vehicle, on the go!

The Hayek MRTX is portable and can operate outside medical centers with no need for additional equipment. Once attached to an injured patient, it may accompany them until he or she reaches the hospital and obtains medical treatment with no need for additional intervention on route.

Ventilation may thus be initiated effectively during an emergency, continue on the way to the hospital, and save lives during those crucial moments by providing treatment before the patients condition deteriorates.

Planes, Trains, Automobiles, and Public Places

As increasing numbers of people gather in shopping centers and stadiums, on public transportation, in high-rise buildings, and public places, the likelihood of emergency situations have dramatically risen. Increased traffic on the road, air, sea and rail has added to the realistic dangers faced by large groups of the public when traveling.

During an emergency, many patients with respiratory failure who do not receive mechanical ventilation are likely to die. Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation and the Hayek MRTX provide a real answer to these real problems! 

Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation (BCV) provides the innovation emergency health officials are looking for and is a real solution to the many problems encountered with traditional forms of ventilation.

A ventilator such as the Hayek MRTX delivers a comprehensive and effective solution by providing complete and non-invasive ventilation.  The MRTX utilizing Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation, or BCV, can be applied very easily and with an incredibly short learning time for the end user. Clinical studies have shown that the application of BCV with the Hayek MRTX can be taught in as little as 5 minutes, or simply by watching a short instructional video by virtually anyone.  Most importantly, in the unlikely event of misapplication of the Hayek MRTX, Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation carries absolutely no risk to the patient, unlike positive pressure ventilation, which may prove fatal.

 

The innovative MRTX leverages advanced technology, while designed in a way that doctors, nurses, health professionals and even non-clinical personnel can operate quickly without any special training. This makes it ideal for personnel providing rapid treatment at the scene of an emergency, while avoiding the difficulties and complication that will likely arise with invasive ventilation.  Biphasic Cuirass Ventilators, such as the Hayek MRTX are easily portable, are extremely lightweight, with a ruggedized case for outdoor use. The rechargeable battery of the Hayek MRTX provides full ventilation for up to 6 hours and can also run on 12 and 24 volts, as well as on mains power allowing the Hayek MRTX to be used for routine care as well. Preset ventilation parameters based on patient dimensions, eliminate any setting concerns.

 

 With BCV, the goal of increasing the number of individuals trained or cross-trained to manage ventilator-dependent patients is easily achieved with the Hayek MRTX. The Hayek MRTX does not require skilled medical personnel. The Hayek MRTX is portable and can operate outside medical centers with no need for additional equipment. Once attached to an injured patient, it may accompany them until he or she reaches the hospital and obtains medical treatment with no need for additional intervention on route. Ventilation may thus be initiated effectively anywhere, continue on the way to the hospital, and save lives during those crucial moments by providing treatment before the patients condition deteriorates. 

How the Hayek MRTX Non-Invasively Supports Ventilation

The cuirass is applied to the patient’s chest. Its disposable seal allows for a comfortable, but airtight fit. The flexible transparent plastic cuirass is available in 12 sizes, chosen according to patient weight and body size, fitting anyone from neonates to adults.

The attached power unit actively controls both the inspiratory and expiratory phases of the respiratory cycle. Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation works physiologically. It operates externally by creating negative chamber pressure on the entire chest area. This causes the lungs to expand, and for inhalation to occur. Using positive pressure in the cuirass, it then creates an expiratory phase, exhalation.

The patented technology used in the Hayek MRTX greatly increases minute ventilation and enabling effective ventilation in both normal and injured lungs. Additional benefits of BCV include the facilitation of secretion clearance and improvement in cardiac output during ventilation.

The Hayek MRTX is portable and can operate outside medical centers with no need for additional equipment. Once attached to an injured patient, it may accompany them until he or she reaches the hospital and obtains medical treatment with no need for additional intervention on route. Ventilation may thus be initiated effectively anywhere, continue on the way to the hospital, and save lives during those crucial moments by providing treatment before the patients condition deteriorates.
