The Respiratory hood can be used in place of more traditional CPAP patient interfaces for better infection control, greater PEEP and greater patient tolerance. Studies have shown better patient outcomes using hoods in place of other interfaces. With its patent-pending nasal cannula interface the Suzy hood allows you to deliver the supplementary oxygen through a standard or high flow nasal cannula (not included) which keeps the oxygen usage to a level similar to traditional interfaces

Circular in shape, the ventilator hood is founded on a 3D printed, orange base which is lined with a silicone neck seal. The patient's head can be inserted through the seal into a transparent, plastic hood. An inflatable neck cushion on the hood's interior provides patient comfort. This is inflated with a black valve at the rear of the hood which has a clip to adjust the amount of air held within the cushion. At the front of the hood are two orange, sealed access ports suitable for probes or catheters. On the left of the hood is a large, orange free-breathing valve which allows for two-way breathing if the inlet air supply is interrupted. An outlet on the valve allows a standard viral filter to be attached. Next to the large valve is a smaller outlet. On the right of the hood is another small outlet, positioned high to maximize patient comfort and facilitate prone positioning. At the very top of the hood is a vale that connects to an inflatable dead space reducer to adjust the free-air volume. Attached to both sides of the hood is a white, padded merino arm strap. This is attached to the orange base of the hood with velcro.
