NYU Tandon AirMOD
Description: The NYU Tandon AirMOD provides non-invasive breathing support in the stages before intubation during critical care, and later, when patients are eased off ventilators. The modifications turn CPAP and BiPAP machines into oxygen-enrichment tools and also trap the virus in a patient’s breath with viral filters. Unlike other conversions, these modifications assemble in minutes and exclusively use FDA-approved off-the-shelf components already in stock in hospitals. The AirMOD modifications were reviewed by pulmonologists and physicians at NYU Langone and other centers.
Status: Ready to deploy
