Medequip Healthcare Solutions, a Bengaluru-based importer and manufacturer of healthcare products, has launched Hypnus Oxymed CPAP and BiPAP devices for sleep apnea therapy.
“Our focus is to reduce the healthcare cost in the next 5-10 years, make it affordable and accessible to all. Domestic manufacture of customized indigenous medical devices will allow us to reduce end user costs. Our products are available Pan India, through our dealer/distributor network,” stated Ankur Garg, Co-founder, Medequip Healthcare Solutions.
Sleep apnea is one of the most prevalent sleep disorders. It is most often caused by an obstruction in the respiratory tract, preventing air from entering the lungs. People with untreated sleep apnea choke during their sleep and even wake up due to this, which disrupts the sleeping pattern. The disruption in supply of air deprives the brain and the rest of the body of enough oxygen leading to very serious consequences, including high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes and obesity. Delivering a steady flow of air into the airway is an effective solution.
"We are ready with a plan to set up a manufacturing facility in Bangalore in 2018, supporting the Make in India initiative,” he added.
Hypnus Oxymed automatically adjusts supply pressure to guarantee natural breathing. It monitors the users breathing to ensure effective exhalation and inhalation using an intelligent algorithm. The efficient humidification technology brings an increase in relative humidity making every breath warm, humid & comfortable. It also captures and records the patients sleeping data precisely for around 2 years.
The Bengaluru based Medequip offers a wide range of life saving, rehabilitation and home healthcare products.
