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 AI treatment optimization. The goal is to include everything that is needed to treat a patient completely remotely and automate large parts of the process.

These devices shall be distributed in return for voluntary contributions. It is needless to say that we need funds in order to do that. Our next step is the design of injection moulding tooling that can be used to mass manufacture these devices extremely cheaply. Currently, the cost of the Ventilator is expected to be 300$ while the oxygen concentrator needs more research before a price can be set but it is likely going to be even cheaper than the ventilator.

This tooling will cost may be up to USD 20,000 which is our priority to raise now. Immediately after that, we are in need of Stage B funding of USD 30,000 to produce 100 Ventilators for trials and testing. We have been very busy setting up fundraising bank accounts and solved many legal concerns already but since we are based in New Zealand still face some issues with fundraising in the US. If you have experience with these issues, we would highly appreciate even a short video call and any advice that you can give us.

If you have the experience, want to improve and offer better Treatment of COVID-19 and some time to give, we believe that this opportunity can offer a high return of investment on your time.

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
