Developed by Dr. Joao Rezende-Neto and Dr. Ori Rotstein in response to what they were experiencing firsthand and hearing from colleagues around the world. Traditional PPE is falling short in providing healthcare professionals the security they desire from the corona virus during aerosol and droplet generating procedures including; noninvasive ventilation, intubation and a variety of other procedures. As a result, they created the CANOPPE Airway dome to provide an additional layer of security for healthcare professionals working in these challenging times.
There are strong use cases for this device in ambulance transport, emergency departments, operating rooms and intensive care units during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond. The device comfortably accommodates the patient and protects the healthcare provider while allowing safe access for procedures in the airway, head and neck, and upper chest regions. This device could also be used to accommodate the patient for extended periods of time.
