Vingroup completed 2 ventilators for Covid-19 treatment

After more than 3 weeks of announcing the plan to manufacture ventilators for the treatment of Covid 19, on April 28, 2020, Vingroup has completed and is preparing to launch two domestic models of invasive ventilators. chemistry: VFS-410 and VFS-510 .

With the active support of ministries, departments, health experts and Medtronic (USA), VFS-410 and VFS-510 ensure international quality standards and long-term value for use in treatment. Post Covid.

After only 3 weeks of publication, Vingroup completed 2 invasive ventilator models with high localization rates V.

VSmart VFS-410 and VFS-510 are two 'made in Vietnam' invasive ventilator models completed and manufactured entirely from the Vingroup ecosystem. In particular, VSmart VFS-410 is a special upgrade of the first VFS-310 ventilator version developed by Vingroup engineers from the design concept of MIT University, while VSmart VFS-510 received transfer and Improved from the world's leading manufacturer of Medtronic (USA).

VSmart VFS-410 is an invasive ventilator respirator, which is comparable to other high-end portable ventilators on the market (leaving CPAP only for people who are breathing on their own). From the simple non-invasive ventilator design of the MIT team, VFS-410 has been modified by Vingroup engineers to become an invasive ventilator with the technology of generating gas by a turbine instead of squeezing the ball itself. action to ensure high accuracy. In addition, the device also has a monitoring and alert sensor to maintain oxygen levels, positive pressure at the end of exhalation, measure patient breathing and self-adjust to sync with this breathing. All operating principles, boards, mechanical components, software development and designs of VSmart VFS-410 are designed, developed and manufactured at Vingroup, in close consultation with the Ministry of Health. ,international experts and Vinmec doctors.

VSmart VFS-510 is an invasive ventilator based on the PB560 model of Medtronic ventilator used in Vietnam. VFS-510 has the advantages of compact, versatile including 6 flexible breathing modes, can be used for adult patients and pediatric patients; for people who need to support invasive or non-invasive breathing . meet a variety of treatment requirements as prescribed by their doctor.

Due to the scarcity of materials for the production of ventilators worldwide, 70% of the components in the machine, including particularly important and complex assemblies such as blowers, boards circuit (PCBA control, power, .), keyboard, display, battery, case . are actively researched and overcome by Vingroup to self-produce or localize. Medtronic has also worked closely with Vingroup to revise the device's software to ensure the features of the VFS-510 are completely equivalent to the original PB560 machine.

Mr. Markus Leitner, Director of Vinfast's Automotive Technology Institute 1, said: ' It is a miracle that, after just over 3 weeks of working on ventilator research, from scratch, Vinsmart and Vinfast engineers have succeed in researching, improving and mastering the technology of ventilator manufacturing. It can be said that, only at Vingroup, we were able to create conditions, create motivation as well as 'pressure' to be able to do this utopia.
