Mobile Machine Saves Lives



There is now a new machine that has the ability to add oxygen a patient's blood stream suffering from smoke inhalation. This added oxygen can help prevent organ failure and save lives. The machine, called Cardio Help, can help any patient whose blood is not getting enough oxygen. Cardio Help helps enrich the blood with oxygen, thus giving patients a better chance to recover from smoke inhalation, infections, and much more. Check out the video above to see this small machine with big life saving potential.

    Any advance in medical technology is a step in the right direction. Firefighters and victims of fires inhale smoke and die all the time. This new cardio help machine could save hundreds or thousands of live per year. The ability to recover from something that would normally kill you is life changing. This machine will be a great addition to the medical technology family. I enjoyed reading and learning about all the different technological advancements in medical science.

    This machine could really have endless amounts of benefits for people. Anything increasing oxygen in the blood is good for people not only suffering from smoke inhalation, but anyone with poor circulation and with compromised intestinal situations. Occasionally something with stop the intestines or brain where they don't receive enough oxygen and it causes them to break down. Also people with compromised feeling, sensation and circulation and Spinal Cord Injuries, there is a large risk sores if any area goes too long under pressure. This can cause the skin and tissue underneath to break down. This is a good thing, glad to here it's use is becoming more frequent.
