SafeBVM

SafeBVM is a medical device and digital health company dedicated to improving survival through safer manual ventilation—an essential yet often overlooked aspect of emergency care. Supported by NIH, NSF, and U.S. military funding, their flagship device, Sotair, features a proprietary flow-limiting valve that caps peak inspiratory flow below 55 LPM to help reduce excessive airway pressures and minimize risks of over-ventilation.

To support skill development, SafeBVM created SotairIQ, an advanced training platform that delivers real-time feedback on flow, pressure, volume, rate, and inspiratory time. Designed to build muscle memory and deepen understanding of ventilation dynamics, SotairIQ prepares providers to deliver more deliberate and controlled ventilation.

Together, SotairIQ and Sotair strengthen provider competence while improving precision, consistency, and safety in both training and real-world manual ventilation—helping reduce variability and patient risk.
