The CoroVent emergency lung ventilator, developed in response to the shortage of ventilators during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, differs in its innovative design from practically all modern ventilators used in clinical practice. It does not use proportionally controlled valves and does not use flow feedback control during inspiration. The design of Corovent uses fast, long-life, electrically controlled valves that were not commercially available just a few years ago.
