About the solution

A team of doctors, led by Dr Ganapathi, from the Mangala Hospital, developed an alternative to the typical oxygen masks: a bubble helmet designed to aid in the treatment of patients with Covid-19.

The helmets are transparent and airtight, sealed through a collar that wraps around the patient’s neck. Being transparent, they allow the patients to watch television or read a book while wearing them. And patients who have tested the helmets found them more comfortable to wear than traditional masks.

"This equipment will be revolutionary in the treatment of COVID-19. The bubble helmet completely covers the head of the patient and will be connected through a special collar on it. The device will help the patient overcome breathing problems and avoid using a ventilator.", explained Dr. Ganapathi.
