“The negative pressure helmet is an incredibly innovative device which will immediately fill a significant and urgent need. This novel device will greatly benefit patients with COVID-19 and other aerosol-transmitted diseases, and will also aid in protection of health care workers by preventing disease transmission.”
-Lena Napolitano, M.D., Director of the U-M Surgical Intensive Care Unit and An Associate Director At MCIRCC
“As we move past the surge and into the tail of COVID-19 at Michigan Medicine, it is vital that we discover innovative ways to provide high quality care and the safest way possible. I strongly believe that the AerosolVE Tent will be a tremendous asset to both the patients as well as the health system.”
-Philip J Choi, MD Assistant Professor of Internal Medicine, Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medical Director, Assisted Ventilation Clinic University of Michigan
“This product will solve a significant safety and operational concern for our patients and employees. As volume begins to increase again, rooms with negative pressure will become increasingly scarce and the need to provide nebulized therapy and/or high flow oxygen will not go away. By using the portable negative airflow respiratory filters, our ability to provide this care will be greatly increased without the risk of moving patients in and out of negative pressure rooms which are a limited resource.”
-Seth Krupp, Medical Director, Vice Chair of Operations, Department of Emergency Medicine Henry Ford Health System
“The helmet design is compact and creates and maintains a personal negative pressure environment that the patient can wear during transport, imaging and testing,"
-Ben Bassin, MD. Emergency medicine, University of Michigan
