Elastomer imparts critical care comfort

摘要

Emergency ventilation masks are critical care devices for treating patients for congestive heart failure and other respiratory distress that demand exacting quality standards. For its 02-RESQ model medical mask, Pulmodyne Inc. (Indianapolis, IN; www.pulmodyne.com) has turned to Teknor Apex Co. (Pawtucket, Rl; www.teknorapex.com) for a custom-formulated compound to realize a soft, odor-free, rounded elastomeric cushion that fits comfortably on the patient's face.
