The innovative model is the world's first hand-cranked, dual-powered bi-phasic defibrillator which works even in areas without electricity, requires no battery replacement and costs 1/4th of the big brands.
India’s death rate due to Sudden Cardiac Arrest is 3 to 4 times that of developed countries. And to cater to that here's the world's first dual-powered (electricity+ hand-cranked) defibrillator that works in areas without electricity and priced at 1/4th that of big brands while maintaining similar or better quality levels European CE.
New features and cost advantage are protected by 4+ patents. In developing countries, the electricity grid is never reliable AND never works 24/7. It works intermittently. Hence, the need for such a dual powered device, which will work even when the grid has failed. This device has been engineered to work even in ambulances wherein it must withstand high/ low temperatures, vibrations, pass drop test etc (std AIS125). Sharp end-user insights combined with strong IP positions this innovation as a great defibrillator model.
It is the world's first hand-cranked defibrillator, which will work in rural remote areas without electricity and save lives. It does not need battery replacement ever thereby saving lakhs of Rupees to the hospitals, over its lifetime.
Since this hand cranked defibrillator does not need battery replacement ever, it saves 10 batteries over 10 years.
The ultimate goal of this innovation is to reduce the death rate due to sudden cardiac arrest by 3x-4x compared with present levels. This will be accomplished by working closely with ambulances, PHCs, CHCs and present hospitals.
This device enables hospitals to afford a biphasic state of the art defibrillator at 1/4th the price and near zero parts replacement cost. This also enables small hospitals to buy their first defibrillator. Large hospitals can improve their "defibrillator per bed" ratios from 1:50 to 1:6 (as recommended by the Indian Government).
