ROUSH YATES COLLABORATES WITH
BIOMEDINNOVATIONS ON VENTILATORS
MOORESVILLE, NC – April 16, 2020 – Roush Yates Manufacturing Solutions, a division of Roush Yates Engines, is proud to be working in collaboration with BioMedInnovations LLC and their partners Equilibar on the development and production of specialized ventilators to help address the mounting need for life-saving health care equipment.
BioMedInnovations (BMI) was founded in 2005 to commercialize a highly controllable, low flow, low pressure fluid technology primarily targeting organ transplantation, working on how to keep an organ “alive” outside the body and to assess organ health prior to implantation in a recipient. BMI has been engaged in research and development and recently received a small-business award from the North Carolina Biotechnology Center for assistance in pivoting toward commercialization of BMI’s fluid perfusion technology.

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK —
As the world grapples with a shortage of ventilators for COVID-19 patients, a small North Carolina life science startup has designed a low-cost option.
Until a few weeks ago, the company was focused on making equipment that helps prolong organ life for transplants.
Then the COVID-19 pandemic struck, and it decided to change tack.

“Seven days ago we realized that the core technology in our perfusion system could be utilized to make highly effecient, low-cost ventilator, and ideally help COVID-19 patients.”
Prototyping the Technology
Some of the on-going bench prototyping of equipment for the BMI SuppleVent™ COVID-19, Low-Cost, Rapidly-Manufactured ventilator.

Chief Executive Officer
BioMedInnovations LLC
I’m excited to be guiding the efforts of BioMedInnovations. BMI is developing a novel perfusion device to 1) preserve donated organ quality and 2) provide metrics for the transplant community to effectively determine organ health. Using a programmable physio-mimetic waveform (PPW) we are able to more consistently and effectively perfuse organs to the capillary bed. We are committed to significantly reducing the number of deaths of patients waiting on organ transplant lists.
