SaiOx Inc. has developed Hespiro™, which is a respiratory assist device that utilizes the proven benefits of heliox in a novel way. This technology helps treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) and other respiratory diseases. The system not only delivers a mixture of helium and oxygen but captures exhaled gas and scrubs it free of carbon dioxide in a completely closed “rebreather” system. SaiOx™ is licensing the intellectual property for this technology from the University of Arizona.
Non-Invasive Ventilation – delivering a mixture of heliox (helium & oxygen) and oxygen.
Oxygen penetrates deeper into the lungs when carried by smaller helium molecules* Semi-closed loop may minimize virus aerosolization and scrubs carbon dioxide for comfortable low-pressure breathing
