The team lead by Professor Marek Darowski invented VENTIL- system for independent synchronous lung ventilation.
In some clinical cases mechanical properties of each lung of a patient differ so much, that is necessary to ventilate them separately to control ventilation of each lung. VENTIL device allows for independent, fully automated synchronous ventilation of lungs with use of only one respirator. In the shortage of respirators (ex. terrorist attack, natural disasters) device allows also to ventilate in classical system two patients using single respirator.
