Co-Founder
Marteau Medical
Stanford, CA
May 2016 - Present (8 years 2 months)
Developed a Single Lung Ventilation (SLV) Endotracheal Tube (ETT) that facilitates the deflation of one lung to optimize surgical conditions while still allowing for fiber-optic scopes or other surgical equipment to be deployed to the operative lung. The design is an attractive solution for neonatal patients (presently not possible given current SLV ETT designs due to size) while being equally viable for adults and can be utilized post-op for ventilating for both lungs without reintubating the patient (which is common practice when using current embodiments for SLV).
