There were many who made their version of the Iron Lungs during the Polio epidemic. Something just doesn't feel right about providing life support with a device that was not even on a drawing board 3 months ago. I have been trying to keep up with the new players in the VentWorld. Here is the start of a list. If you know of others please let us know about them. I have more to add soon, but I wonder how many of these "ventilators" actually get to patients and do they actually get the job done.
