Hospital de Sant Pau, QEV Tech engineering, Nissan and the Eurecat technology centre have developed the Q-Vent ventilator for use in hospital ICUs to alleviate the lack of equipment generated by Covid-19.
The Q-Vent ventilator, which has already been authorised by the Spanish Agency for Medicines and Healthcare Products (AEMPS) for use in clinical research, has been tested at the facilities of the Research Institute of the Hospital de Sant Pau with excellent results.
Production of the Q-Vent will begin at Nissan’s Barcelona engine and gearbox plant.
Hospital Sant Pau and Eurecat are CataloniaBio & HealthTech members.
