History

Vapotherm was founded in 1999 by a group of biomedical engineers. The company's initial focus was on developing a device that could deliver high flow oxygen therapy to neonates. This led to the creation of the Precision Flow system, which was launched in 2004.

Products

Vapotherm's main product is the Precision Flow system. This device uses a high flow nasal cannula to deliver heated and humidified oxygen to patients. The system is designed to be easy to use and provides a comfortable alternative to more invasive forms of respiratory support.

Clinical Applications

The Precision Flow system is used in a variety of clinical settings, including neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), pediatric intensive care units (PICUs), and adult intensive care units (ICUs). It is used to treat a range of conditions, including bronchiolitis, pneumonia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
