    Abstract

    The whole world is under the influence of the novel Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), which hit hard most of the developed and developing countries, leading to the death of millions of people around the world. This disease majorly affects the respiratory tract, which can progress to more severe or potentially deadly conditions such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or hypoxemia, owing to widespread inflammation of the lungs. Conventionally used ventilator devices are quite expensive and require trained staff for its smooth operation. Generally, in developing countries these types of ventilators are limited in numbers and available only at multispecialty hospitals. So as to tackle and fulfill the urgent need of ventilators, we come up with a device which is a low-cost, easy to assemble, portable automated AMBU resuscitator system, that can be easily scaled, to fight the ongoing pandemic. The device provides precise control over various ventilation parameters, such as PEEP, peak pressure, tidal volume, I/E, BPM, while operating in pressure mode.
