A Hungarian startup is breaking new ground in medical technology with a revolutionary laryngeal mask for anesthesia. Designed to significantly reduce the risk of post-operative infections and complications, the innovation is poised to make a global impact. Backed by a fresh injection of capital, the project is advancing rapidly, offering a safer solution for both patients and healthcare providers, writes Index.
Unlike traditional laryngeal masks that often risk damaging the patient’s airway, this new design is significantly smaller upon insertion and only expands to its final size once correctly positioned. This innovative feature ensures safer ventilation during surgery and minimizes trauma to the airway upon removal. By effectively reducing complications, fewer patients need to be cared for for longer than necessary, saving time and money for the mask user.
It should be stressed that the company that developed the mask is entirely Hungarian, founded and managed in Hungary, and the development team …
