Stimulating Recovery for Mechanically Ventilated Patients.

MECHANICAL VENTILATION IS NOTHING LIKE NATURAL BREATHING

~1.6 million Americans are mechanically ventilated per year.

While mechanical ventilation is a necessary treatment for those who cannot breathe on their own, it unfortunately, can also cause patients harm. This harm is called Ventilator Induced Lung Injury.

The Effects of Pressure Mechanical Ventilation:

Barotrauma and Lung Injury

Poor Regional Lung Ventilation

Decreased Systemic Oxygenation

XN Health has developed Phlex: Diaphragm Stimulator.

Our groundbreaking transtracheal phrenic nerve stimulation technology reactivates the diaphragm in mechanically ventilated patients. Our goal is to support respiration during ventilation to prevent ventilator associated complications and  improve patient outcomes.

Phlex Diaphragm Stimulator

Transforming Ventilator Care for a Healthier Tomorrow

Phrenic nerve stimulation reactivates the diaphragm, moving it downwards during ventilation to support a more natural breathing mechanism. This improves regional lung ventilation, decreases the pressure required to inflate the lungs, all while improving the strength of the diaphragm.
