The focus of the agreement is Inovytec's Ventway Sparrow Robust, a MIL STD robust and portable advanced ventilator, which features airworthiness approvals (rotary and fixed wing), night vision compatibility, and is operational up to 25,000 feet.
"The Ventway Sparrow Robust allows for hospital level care even in complicated, far-forward combat environments. We presented the ventilator to a number of officials before closing this deal and the overwhelming impression was that this was a tool that could change military medicine," said Stephen Hicks, Category Manager-Operational Medicine/Education and Simulation at ADS.
Co-founder and CEO of Inovytec Udi Kantor said, "Our agreement with ADS is part of our goal to become a long-term medical supplier for the defense industry. We were looking for a significant partner with extensive experience in the field and we have found just that. Ultimately, we hope that the ventilators lighten the heavy burden that rests with combat medics and helps ensure the highest standards of medical care anytime and anywhere."
