We are a non-profit organization building an infrastructure to develop, manufacture, distribute and operate remote-controlled ventilators and oxygen concentrators that will also gather high-resolution treatment data for scientific research and treatment optimization.

At this stage, we are still technically within the prototype phase and need further refinements in preparation for mass production. the COVID 19 disaster appears to have no limits on the extent and importance of this project and significance in the context of world history.

To effectively move forward with our mission, we are in need of a medical professional, experienced specifically in the gas transfer of Lung/blood supply. In order to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment, our ventilator tries to gather as much low-cost information as possible that might give us an indication of patient status and disease progression. With enough patient information and deep learning algorithms, previously unknown relationships might become clearer. Such insight would progress the knowledge about COVID-19 and respiratory medicine as a whole. One of the tasks is to determine low-cost data sources that might possibly be worthwhile to include during machine learning.

Even inserting molecules and analyzing the exhaled air for traces of that might be considered to gain knowledge about the pulmonary system, comparable to the latest breakthroughs in the microbubble technique which has been shown to indicate vasodilation.

To find such creative solutions we need a professional with the ability to utilize the approach from the safe and reliable gas transfer requirements innovating all the way in order to achieve the lowest possible cost with the maximum rate of manufacturing capabilities while managing an acceptable level of risk given this current emergency.


Additionally preferred experience/knowledge:
- FDA approval process - specifically under emergency conditions
- Knowledge of any additional internationally recognized approvals

Mission Statement

Our mission is to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of the world's medical workforce fighting COVID-19

Description

Every Year 4.2 million children under 5 are desperate for oxygen. 800,000 mothers lose their child every year because of Pneumonia, a lung disease often requiring oxygen. This toll is higher than for any other disease in the world. What hospitals in the US and Europe consider one of the most essential treatments is not available for many. The problem, oxygen concentrators keep breaking down in the high humidity, temperature and dust environments, burn through during energy spikes when the power comes back online after one of the many outages or simply breaks and nobody knows how to repair it.

We have set out to change this and develop an oxygen concentrator that will make public health investments much more effective. Our first calculations suggest that we could lower the cost of a child's life by as much as two-thirds. Due to our organization working with volunteers we can reduce the development cost but bringing a medical device to market is hard work and we expect that you meet the requirements and are responsive and transparent with your skills and availability. If our mission sounds important and exciting to you, learn more about us on www.ardenmed.com and apply for one of our open positions through our platform! http://jira.ardenmed.com/plugins/servlet/loginfreeRedirMain?portalid=16&request=136
