Michelin Hungary is supporting Nyíregyháza Hospital in NE Hungary with two pieces of MICHELIN Airprone medical equipment to help care for patients in the intensive care unit.
The MICHELIN Airprone, given the local county hospital Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg Vármegyei Oktatókórház, is a set of 7 air cushions designed for patients suffering from Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) during a health crisis, according to a statement by Michelin Hungary.
The product is an innovative air pillow set designed for patients suffering from Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Speaking at the event, Florian Fischer, Managing Director of Michelin Hungary, said that this donation is part of Michelin's commitment to continue supporting the local community as a responsible company. The medical equipment that will help the care of patients in the intensive care unit was received Dr. Attila Szűcs, Director General of the hospital.
During the health crisis, the need for equipment and devices to help patients in intensive care has increased significantly. In response, Michelin has designed the MICHELIN AirProne. Developed in partnership with the University Hospital of Amiens, the solution has been tested in 9 hospitals in France: the University Hospital of Clermont-Ferrand, the University Hospital of La Pitié-Salpêtrière, the University Hospital of Beaujon, the University Hospital of Nord-Franche-Comté, the Civil Hospice of Lyon, the Hospital Centre of St Nazaire, the Hospital Centre of Garches, the Hospital Centre of Ales-Cévennes and the University Hospital of Lille, the statement points out.
This Class I medical device is designed to reduce the incidence of flatulence and improve the respiratory function and comfort of patients in the prone position. The MICHELIN AirProne is a set of seven modules of air cushions for the head, chest, pelvis, right arm, left arm, knees and shins. The pads allow for superior pressure distribution while ensuring better patient positioning. The particularly complex headrest design ensures no pressure on the ears, provides lateral support and distributes pressure evenly, while the 3D fabric material wicks away mucus and reduces perspiration.
