Heecap, winner of the IMAGINE IF! Barcelona local final 2021, is helping intensive care patients repair their respiratory strength with their unique bioelectronic therapy.
Patients that are connected to mechanical ventilation for more than 24h are provided with high doses of sedatives. Their muscles stop working and, especially, their diaphragm (the main respiratory muscle) becomes weak and atrophied. Heecap is a medical device that aims to keep active the diaphragm and provide the patients with enough strength in their respiratory muscles to breathe by themselves.
