In addition, scientists from Tomsk State University (TSU) have developed a device for the rehabilitation of the respiratory system of patients who have undergone severe coronavirus infection.
According to the press service of the university, a device based on ventilators and gas analyzers will help speed up the patient's recovery, which usually takes several months.
“Russian hospitals are now equipped with a large number of ventilators.
When last year there was a massive purchase of them in medical institutions, it was clear that as the incidence of diseases decreased, equipment would be released.
Therefore, the idea arose: as the situation stabilized, they should be involved in the rehabilitation of patients in whom COVID-19 was severe, residual effects remain, ”TASS quotes the words of Konstantin Belyakov, an advisor at the TSU rector's office.
The press service explained that ventilators allow you to regulate the pressure, oxygen content, frequency and frequency of delivery of the breathing mixture, while the gas analyzer reflects the changes in the body during illness.
This combination allows for faster pulmonary rehabilitation, as well as faster finding problems in the respiratory system.
