The SAVe Receives Aeromedical Certification from the U.S. Military
Germantown, MD - AutoMedx, a manufacturer of pre-hospital ventilators, today announced that it has been notified of
Airworthiness Release (AWR) from the U.S. Army's Medical Research and Materiel Command for the SAVe Simplified Automated
Ventilator. The certification indicates that the SAVeTM is in compliance with the U.S. Army's medical device certification
criteria and is now certified for use aboard MEDEVAC H-60 helicopters.
The U.S. Army's Aeromedical Research Laboratory does extensive aeromedical testing to determine if medical equipment
functions properly in the aircraft environment. The evaluation includes electromagnetic interference and compatibility
(EMI, EMC), environmental and human factors testing in the laboratory as well as in-flight assessments by engineers and
medical personnel under a variety of flight conditions.
"The SAVe was designed to meet the specific needs of the military, and we are extremely pleased that it has been approved
for use aboard MEDEVAC helicopters. This capability supports AutoMedx's commitment to the health of the warfighter from
point of injury through CASEVAC," said James Evans, President & CEO of AutoMedx.
The SAVe is an efficient, safe, and cost effective alternative to bag-valve masks and pneumatic ventilators that provides
the safety, ease of use and level of respiratory support required in the pre-hospital environment.
About AutoMedx Inc. Founded in 2004, AutoMedx' mission is to save lives by providing unparalleled access to mechanical
ventilation during the first critical minutes of distress. AutoMedx is located in Germantown, Maryland.
