2. Deliver breaths to a patient who is physically unable to breathe, or breathing insufficiently.
3. It's Rechargeable. Powered by battery and electricity.
4. Electronically controlled by a small embedded system to allow exact adaptation of flow characteristics to an individual patient's needs. 
5. Mass producible in hundreds within days
6. Utilises parts which can be sourced locally

He tried!

May God bless him.

Now should we pump money in to it for mass production?

Thinking aloud

Make E no turn to Ventrocutor o

This is good

This is innovative... When all these is over, I believe new innovative businesses would have evolved out of this pandemic

Nice development. Shows we can solve or own challenges as Nigerians. If someone can do this despite the lockdown and inability to access materials, then he needs Govt's full support instead of begging Elon Musk for ventilators. This is the only local ventilator concept I've seen with a digital control. Imagine what this can be turneed to with the right funding.
Thumbs up.
Make we dey watch till Ghana or South Africa go snatch this one too from us.

Woooow! This is very innovative �
And coming from a Nigerian, I'm so impressed. Thumbs up.
Our Government should look into exploring this. Let's look inward for this Covid-19 pandemic rescue...

This is awesome. Thumbs up

This is amazing! A very great innovation, this should be encouraged by our government. #proudlynigerian

Woooow! He really tried I must confess, we have great minds and the Government should invest in this for our health sector and for the Covid 19 pandemic... Great job��
