Remote control for COVID-19 patient ventilators
Published Aug 13, 2020
A team of Johns Hopkins researchers have built a robotic system that will give medical staff the ability to remotely operate ventilators and other bedside machines from outside the rooms of patients with infectious diseases like COVID-19. The system could be deployed to help hospitals preserve protective gear, limit staff exposure to COVID-19, and provide more time for clinical work.
