The Leipzig emergency ventilation system from Next3D
Rapid support in the emergency care of Covid19 patients through a 3D-printed emergency ventilator developed by Leipzig University Hospital and Fraunhofer IWU, the testing and modification of which was supported by WHZ. This development took only 7 days. If there are not enough high-tech ventilation systems available, this should be available to doctors as a last option. It is not a certified medical device, but is intended as a last choice. However, the Next3D working group at Leipzig University Hospital is certified in accordance with the medical technology standard ISO13485 and is generally permitted to manufacture and market patient-specific 3D-printed instruments and models, which are considered custom-made products in accordance with the Medical Devices Act. The system is medically supported by Prof. Dirk Winkler (Deputy Director of the Clinic and Polyclinic for Neurosurgery at Leipzig University Hospital), who also has many years of experience as an emergency physician. Partners: Leipzig University, Leipzig University Hospital, West Saxon University of Applied Sciences Zwickau, Fraunhofer Institute for Machine Tools and Forming Technology IWU.
