MyVenus
Patients who have acute respiratory failure can benefit from using a treatment, called Home Mechanical Ventilation. Current telemedicine systems usually do not allow continuous monitoring and, typically, monitor only some breaths during the whole day (sample monitoring), but patient’s physical condition may vary very strongly during the day. In order to reduce these drawbacks, the MyVenus has been developed! It is a new telemedicine system allowing the continuous and real-time monitoring of the main physical quantities involved during home mechanical ventilation. MyVenus is available for licensing.

Biomedical Lab (Luigi Battista, Noemi Giorgio e Fabio Giuseppe Battista)
Biomedical Lab is an initiative concerned with the design and development of medical devices for people’s health. Two main projects are being developed: the PD-Watch, which is a “watch” for patients with Parkinson's disease, and MyVenus, a telemedicine system for home mechanical ventilation. We are based in Italy, Basilicata, in the province of Potenza.
Luigi Battista (biomedical engineer, inventor of the MyVenus) - 31 years old - graduated from the Campus Bio-Medico University with a degree in Biomedical Engineering (with honours and a distinction) in 2009 and received a PhD in Engineering from Roma Tre University in 2013. He was previously a research associate at the Italian National Institute of Optics, part of the National Research Council. He has also working experience as a clinical engineer for the “Stazione Unica Appaltante della Regione Basilicata”, the Matera Local Health Authority, the “Miulli” Hospital in Acquaviva delle Fonti (province of Bari), and the Hospital of Potenza “San Carlo”. He is currently a contract Professor in “Electrical Measurements” and “Bioengineering” at the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart, Faculty of Medicine. He has also worked as a contract Professor in “Electronics” at the University of Basilicata. He is passionate about the use of technology in medicine. www.luigibattista.it , https://it.linkedin.com/pub/luigi-battista/81/a0a/5b2
