MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641001548 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on Jan. 7, for 'low venturi based cpap system.'
Inventor(s) include Dr Shobhna Shivani; Dr. Rathna; and Deepak Nallaswamy Veeraiyan.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The OxyJet device represents an innovative advancement in oxygen delivery and respiratory support technology, specifically engineered to provide Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) in resource-limited and emergency care settings. Unlike conventional electronically controlled CPAP systems, OxyJet utilizes a Venturi-based mechanism to generate the desired therapeutic pressure and oxygen concentration without dependence on electricity or complex regulators. This approach ensures cost-effectiveness, portability, and reliability, particularly in low-resource hospitals, transport scenarios, and field medical units. Structurally, the OxyJet features a disposable primary nozzle insert cartridge that governs the jet entrainment mechanism, maintaining consistent flow dynamics while minimizing the risk of cross-contamination between patients. A compact pressure gauge port enables clinicians to continuously monitor airway pressure and make real-time adjustments, ensuring safe and effective CPAP delivery. The integrated FiO2 sampling port allows for precise monitoring of the inspired oxygen fraction, supporting individualized patient care and adherence to clinical protocols."
