cord-353129-ivbf4kuq	Faryami, Ahmad	Open source 3D printed Ventilation Device	2020-05-22		.txt	text/plain	2331	118	50	The following is intended to review the development and testing of a 3D printed and open-source mechanical ventilation device that is capable of adjusting breathing rate, volume, and pressure simultaneously and was designed according to the latest clinical observations of the current pandemic. This open-source positive pressure ventilation device (OSPPVD) is a response to the shortages in the hospitals' ventilation capacity, which has been reported to be essential to many COVID-19 patients throughout the world. According to the initial reports published by healthcare providers, the loss of compliance due to the onset of fibrosis in the lungs is observed in patients diagnosed with severe cases of COVID-19 infection 9 . An advantage of OSPPVD presented here is its capability to perform hyperventilation with high flow rates under relatively wide pressure range from 5 2 that would allow the delivery of oxygen without the over-expansion of the lungs while being able to supply pressurized air as high as 40 or 50 2 even though the current setup is designed to only reach 30 2 .	./cache/cord-353129-ivbf4kuq.txt	./txt/cord-353129-ivbf4kuq.txt
